Top too tight!
I bought a brand new glass top for my 97 coupe the other day (good deal off E-bay) and when I put it on, it fit super-super snug. I know we all like tight better than loose (he-he), but the front latches are extremely hard to turn down. Does anybody know if there is an adjustment in the latch hardware I can make to ease the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Yes, there are some adjustments that can be made to make the top fit better. I'm not sure just how it is done, but a body shop should be able to figure it out.
