Default California Roof Wind Deflector Retrofit

Hey guys,

I got a spare Cali top with a wind deflector recently - I want to take the wind deflector out and put it on my car. From what I recall, you could manually crank the top open with a hex wrench on the motor (between those two screws that open the motor up). This motor seems to have a threaded hole instead of a hex, or it's been stripped out completely. Anyone how to slide the roof open another way? I guess I could connect it to power...

When I do get it open, is removing the wind deflector a simple job? I'm hoping it doesn't involve too much custom work...

Thanks,
Matt
