I have noticed some creaking coming from the rear targa top area when I drive. I lifted up on all four corners of the top and the right rear is loose. Even when the top is latched, I can lift it up a bit. That is probably my issue, but what is the fix?

I recently went through the same thing,right rear corner creaked. Keith (914Toy) helped to fix mine. With the top off, he used a C-Clamp to bend the hook part of the latch down.It doesn't much bending, 1/4" at most.
Since one of my latches was bad,I replaces both with Bruce Stone rebuilds. They worked perfect.Only problem was getting the targa pad off.....
I also replaced the rear targa top seal
