![]() Adjusting the the windows begins with the proper adjustment of the doors. And the targa top. First I made sure that, when closing the doors the windows are straight. Then I started to look for issues on the top. Here is what I noticed. First the targa was not evenly sit on top of the car when latches in place. one side was overlapping the targa bar and and the other side was pushed in a bit. I adjusted it by playing with the screws on the latches front and rear. The other issue was on the drivers side where the windows was closing properly without gap, I noticed that the rail for the seal was flushed with the edge of the targa, where on the passenger side it was slightly in about the same size as the gap. I removed the rail and re mount it to match the drivers side. I also had to make some adjustment on the front latch by loosen the two 9mn bolts. My windows are perfect now and the doors are closing much better. Ps. I am using an early targa top on a late model and I still was able to make these adjustments. I will change my top soon, as they are different to prevent leaks, but as far as I can tell it looks pretty good. Rain will tell. When I change the top I will pay close attention at the curves and the way it sits on the car and add to this thread. That will be a summer project. |
