Default Installing '03 Hardtop

as seen here before, there is an Adobe Reader File online at cheaphondaparts.com. however it's titled "2002" "kit B". will these work for an '03?

http://www.cheaphondaparts.com...1.pdf

if so, has any had any experience with step #9:

"Locate the area where the convertible top
frame and the corner gusset meet. Using a
hammer and a center punch, bend the corner
gusset outward until it follows the contour of
the convertible top frame.

Thanks for the help.

i believe 00-01 have extra hardware, and the 02+ are all the same.

The install looks pretty indepth, I wouldn't have imagined it being that way
