How to Attach a T-Top to a Boat Without the Access Under the Deck?

wrote:
I assume this is a Center console boat. Is there a backing plate
underneath the deck of just thick glass holding the T-Top. I saw
another boat where the owner had reversed the way he had it attached.
He put the head of the boat underneath the deck and help the T-Top with
a pair of nylocks

Seem like someone placed the backing plate for the T-Top _above_ the
deck instead of underneat the deck of my boat. And that backing plate
is not stainless steel and has rusted extensively and is peeling off
rusted chips all over the place. This is the reason why I want to
detach and re-attach the T-Top.

Mine is a very strange way of attaching T-top. But sound like what you
saw was even stranger.

I will surely add a stainless steel backing plate _underneat_ the deck
if I can somehow hold it in place while I am attaching the bolts and
nuts. I probably need to use some hot-glue or something to temporarily
hold the backing plate in place.
