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)

I had the same problem a while back. I had replaced the roof side rubber with repro from AA. Found the repro rubber is significantly harder (and I think thicker walled) than OEM, so the panel seated higher against the sides of the shock mounts when in the trunk. Got an OEM set from GPR, and found the roof seats much better. Still requires precise fitting into the clips, but the trunk now closes.
