I went to lower my roof today on my 2006 Boxster and as it started to retract I heard a loud crack and it no longer opens. I think I might have not pulled the handle back quite enough and as it started to move i think it snagged on the release handle. I’m hoping it was just the plastic safety cups that broke. Are they easy to replace, or is it a specialist job? Thanks.

Sounds like it could be the plastic ball socket broken easy enough to see if it is.
Nearly every place will want to sell you the arm and plastic ball cup socket complete which is obviously more expensive.
With some research asking around a plastic ball cup socket is available but you will have to really dig around to buy it as a stand alone part most place will say you can't just buy the cup socket on its own.
