Hardtop adjustment

[frankwhite1978]

Sorry if this is somthing that has been talked about before, but............

I bought a hardtop on weekend, and me and the guy i got it from very quickly and easily fitted it, however when i got home i noticed that it is a fair bit tighter (touching) to the bodywork on one side than the other, can sombody tell me how to remedy this, i have seen a document online but it only has symbols and isnt that helpful, i figure if anybody is going to know it would be you guys.

Cheers in adavance

the hardtop adjusts with the two nuts on either side.. make sure there is a 5-6mm gap round before you lock it in position..

done

Lidt it off first and make sure nothing is trapped under the mounting spigots.....
