Hey why wont my trunk close all the way with the roof inside. It closes up just fine with a empty trunk. Everything seems to fit in it place OK like front clips and the rear rubber things. Any suggestions. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif)

There is very little clearance between the top and the trunk lid, so even a little bit of error can make it tough to close your trunk.
1) Make sure the cups for the front latches are turned so the deepest part is up, and make sure the plastic part of the latch is turned as Joe described 2) There is room for the top to move about 3/8" side to side even when in all 4 holders. If you are off center, not only will you miss the clearance spot on the tail lights, but the side of the top can hit the wheel hump and push it up a hair. Make sure you are centered on the tail lights as Joe described. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beerchug.gif) |
