3. Remove the Necessary Plastic Tabs To Get At the Washer Nut Combo of the Hood Windshield Hold Down Bracket or Footman Loop.
TIP 1: You might need a pliers to help pull out the plastic tabs.
TIP 2: I like to find a special spot to put my hardware when I am working on my Jeep. This prevents me from loosing important pieces.
