Hi all, just acquired a hard top and it doesn't quite sit flush at the top of the windscreen, there is a slight gap. How can I adjust this? I have tried playing about with the clips but no avail. TIA

Seen a few like that. The latches do need adjusting a bit so they pull outwards and flatten the raised middle bit, won't be perfect but will improve

I got someone to press the middle down while I adjusted it and latched it, that helped too.
