Title: Hood adjustment
Post by: Pete McCue on November 2, 2024, 09:24
Good morning all, I've noticed this gap in the soft top fit against the window seal which I've not noticed before. Might have always been like it but I don't think so. The front clamps are properly adjusted. Is there anything else I can adjust to get the fit better? Cheers.

I don't have an original roof but mine sits in a similar position

Ok, thanks for that. It just looks like it should be sitting in that groove but it doesn't leak so I guess just leave well alone!  :)

All 3 of my previous 2's sat the same so yes if not leaking, leave well alone ;D

Ditto - from my experience just leave it. Most soft tops are quite old now and messing with them usually create more problems, than solutions 😋
