Welcome to the board. Post some pics of your rig when you get a chance.

The top is mounted to the windshield header in 4 points. On the outside corners, there are mounts through the Blazer specific sun visor mounts into the threaded insert in the top. There are two more mounts about 8 inches to each side of the center. They use a small "L" shaped piece of metal with screws into the top and the windshield frame.

Once the top is in place you'll also need to get some rain deflectors. They help deflect the rain from the drip rail on the windshield header from going down the door glass.
