The "official" instructions say front first then the rear.

... and that is certainly the best way. If you do the back first you will have a heck of a time to do the front, you will have to stretch the material to engage the locks on both sides.
If you do the front first, a gentle push down will lock the back. Easy.
Don't ask me how it is that I know that.

Lock the two screws into the windshield header.

Then gently push on the frame below the center of the rear window until the frame clicks onto the pull down latch.

Then swing the release handle into the closed position and that will pull the rear top frame down onto the body.

Simple, easy peasy.
