T-Top Adjustment?

Forgive me if I'm being numb, but there's not a lot of info here in England.

My T-Tops leak - what a surprise. The car has had new seals and it still leaks.

I was wondering if the locking holes on the car body are adjustable to tighten up the seal? There seems to be a screw below the holes and I wondered if that was how they are adjusted (Didn't want to try it and make things worse!)

Re: T-Top Adjustment?

Well ive never had mine off but seen it at a junkyard. I think you got to take your A pillar off by removing that screw below the holes and then get the push in clips out to take the pillar all the way off. then there should be two bolts behind there holding the T-top pin mounting plate on. Loosen them and adjust it. So pretty much take your A pillar off and the rest should be self explanetory.
