W208 cabriolet roof cylinder repair

[Joe Goodfell]

Hi, I have a 1999 CLK230 cabriolet W208. The roof hydraulic 9black) cylinder are leaking. Apparently this is a common problem due to poor quality OEM seals. Replacement seal kits are available from Germany, Does anyone know how to dismantle these cylinders? Thanks, joe
