Item # 10 is the receiver "hardtop prep", item #2 attached to the top, is mounted into the receiver and locked down with "tool" #8.



This is what the receiver looks like installed.


If you don't have this from the factory then the 2 parts below are necessary. The small wire in #10 plugs into the existing wiring harness to make the defroster work in the Hardtop window.

Left hardtop support - 1 - #54217043963

Right hardtop support - 1 - #54217043964

I checked my original invoice from 2/6/07 and it says that list for the above parts is $89.00 each. My dealer also gave me a discount off this.

You will also have to install yourself ( 2 to 4 hours depending on how handy you are ) or by the dealer who charged me $200.

Hope this helps!
E-mail me at jackbmwz4@yahoo.com for more info or my call #.

Best!
