Convert Top Adjustments Options

[TRDweaponX]

Does anyone know where (if any) the adjustments for the convertible top are? I know of the two hidden in the front upper corners but there must be others.

Sounds like I'm having the same issue (as a 'vert n00b). Frame doesn't sit straight when it's down, is crooked by an inch or two when it's just shy of being fully closed -- and a bit of a pain to wrestle with when getting the latches closed. Apologies if I've missed it in my searches, but any insights into any possible adjustments would be much appreciated. Thanks!

hard to see in this pic, there is a rubber stopper that works when you open the top at the base of the top skeleton. and there is also one on the other side when you close the top. only 2 adjustments you can do.

if after this it does not align, the skeleton top is bent. or worst case scenario is car frame issue.

not much to do

sometimes if it has an aftermarket top, it may be too tight, thus preventing full closing, (nothing to do in here, fixing is a pain in the ass, as you have to realign the cloth, and that means dissasembly of the whole top)



like the picture you see, and then fiddle with the aluminum bar, and restaple the cloth... you dont want to do that.

I transferred my redone top to my new Celica. And it doesn't sit quite right. But I noticed that the little plastic parts that it latches onto at the top of the window are pretty beat up. So I'd suggest checking those to make sure your latches going in correctly, or see if you can adjust the little hooks. It seems like you can, but I haven't fooled with it as I intended to get the plastic parts from my old car anyway.
