How do I remove the cover from my Garmin 4kw HD radar dome?
It is new and i don't want to break it.

Undo all the screws around the perimeter on the bottom, then simply remove the white dome cover. Since its new and you don't want to break it I suggest not opening it.

Unscrew the 4 screws.

I am installing a Seaview 4 degree wedge. I believe I will need to open the dome in order unhook the wires and then route the wiring throught the center of the wedge.

I have ordered longer threaded rods to accomodate the wedge and have my fingers crossed that I will not have to drill new holes in my T-Top.

The cables disconnect from the bottom of the radar. There is no reason to ever open up a Garmin radar. All other manufacturers are starting to follow Garmin's lead with this.
