Default Roof panel attachment point failure (trunk mount)

Hi guys and gals,

I don't usually cross-post between forums, but I'm trying to get this solved in the next couple days.

One of the soft plunge mounts on the rear face of my trunk is loose, and it's allowing the roof panel to rattle slightly under the hatch. I didn't see a screw head on it that I could tighten, and I'd like to snug it back down before my next autocross event. Does anybody know how these are installed, or have an exploded diagram of the area?

Does your local race club allow you to get past tech inspection with a removable roof stored in trunk? I'm surprised they allow that.

I didn't ask them, but that isn't the point of this thread either.

A gentleman on another forum asked for visual aids, so I'll post here as well to clarify what I'm asking for help on.
