W124 Cab Hydraulic Cylinder Removal Questions

I am trying to remove the cylinder shown as #3 on the diagram. The top is accessible after removing the seat and interior trim. I believe this cylinder extends into the body cavity in front of the wheel well, I can feel fluid on the bottom portion and see the top of the cylinder leaking. There is a third hydraulic line that attaches at the bottom and I can see the two other lines going up.

I have found a #40 Torx behind a rubber plug that seems to be holding the cylinder in, I have not been able to budge it so far but am trying to make sure that is what I need to remove and not the entire soft top assembly. Almost all of the write-ups are for the R129, I asked Dennis Ficken but he could help on this.

Thanks in advance.
