How do you access ECU on a Cab?

Anybody know how to access and remove the ECU on a turbo cab? I've done it many times on the coupe.

Porsche Babe has a Cab and I believe she re-programmed her ecu. Send here a PM and inquire...

Start to put the top back far enough that the access panel is farthest up. Reach under the top on each corner and feel for the cables attaching the top to the body. They are a ball and shocked setup. Simply pull the top of the cable away from the top. Now lift the top toward the front of the car (the rear portion). This will give you access to the back area. Remove the cover. There are a few snaps. The ECU is on the right side on the wall. You can't miss it.

Here's a picture from when I did it, not the best but it may help.
