2 questions tho.....i can change the upper rails from this point cant i? no more needs to come off? any info/help on removing them would be nice :) plus, the two 13mm bolts at the bottom of the cover, ones longer than the other - i managed to mix em up! does the longer one go to the front or back of the car?

thank you!!!
