Removing 5th wheel front cap/ broken weld?

I removed the front cap on my previous Jayco designer. I had to remove the trim around the perimeter of the cap first. This was the longest tedious part of the job. once the trim was removed, my cap was held onto the frame with about 6 large head screws located in various locations around the cap. I removed all the lights and housings and pushed the wires back through the openings so they wouldn't snag. Work from the bottom to the top removing the screws and have help ready. My cap literally fell off when I took the last screw out. Caught us by surprise and we ended up cracking the bottom of the cap when the top let loose and the bottom got hung up.

Removing the cap looks much harder than it is. Had my off within a hour and that included removing the eternabond tape sealing the roof trim.
