Default Faulty T-Top Latch

This is the result of a bad t-top latch and not paying attention when getting out of my car.

The car fared far better than I did. As a matter of fact she got a good bath after I got stapled up.

I almost never put the tops on mine, only when it's getting a wash. Didn't realize all the fun I was missing.

Adjust that lock-foot outward; it should tighten up the clamp when engaged.

OOOOWWWWWW!!
