Hi Everyone,

Just put my hardtop on ready for the winter. The first time its been on since I had the car.

Put the front in first and carefully dropped the back, lining up the pins with holes. Used the allen key and turned until it clicked once.

Looked wierd as there was a gap of around an inch all the way round, but its on tight. Is this right??

The problem I now have is that the front windows go up and down fine. The drivers side rear window seems to get jammed and eventually comes up after a few presses. Once it starts going up its fine.

Does anyone know about this problem and what I can do please??
 
As somewhat of an authority on hard tops and what can go wrong I think I can help.

Are you talking about the gap where it looks as if the top is sitting high of the body all the way around the base of the top from rear quater window to the other rear quater window? so much so you can get you finger tips up and in?

If thats what you mean - it's on ok.

Hi ArBee,

Thanks for clearing that up. Looked kinda wierd at first.

Any thoughts about the sticky rear window?
 
No Sorry me old son, I don't and haven't had that issue myself.

Sticky switch/connector somewhere by the sound of it if it comes up after a couple of plays on the switch
