The gap on the passenger side on yours is identical to mine. It never seems completely flush however I adjust it.firebobby said:Here a few better shots

It's not supposed to be flush. There should be a 5mm gap at the lowest point between body and hardtop.
Best measured with something plastic like a wall plug that you can slide in the gap without paint damage
If it's too close you risk body damage at the rear and wind nose at the leading edge

Sorry I meant where it met the top of the windscreen.

Ah OK my misread. No adjustment at the front. All controlled by raising and lowering and sliding the top around at the rear corners

I hope he does get good reception - I'm thinking of going back to a whippy myself!
A stubby may be pretty, but if you want to listen to the radio a stubby is almost as useful as a chocolate teapot with a hole in it! :evil:

I prefer the look of the OEM whippy. Oh, and it's great for picking up the radio too

Definitely NOT a Capri - it's nearly 10 years old and the floor hasn't even started to rust! :lol:
Perhaps I should get a Webasto roof put in.
The good 'ol Capri eh! I reckon a webasto roof will look cool, start a trend even. A brown one :evil: I may even get my hardtop one in white!
