Default 98 vert question

hinged small door just above seatbelt upper post attachment on each side that gives access to what looks like a roof adjustment.

Comments?

the roof really rattles when up....when down and stored, the storage compartment lid really seems to rattle, maybe it is the lid in both cases?

mine rattles too when the top is down. These covers open up when you put the top up.

I'm not sure that I'm understanding the question here, but if top adjustment is the question there's a documented procedure for it. Do a quick search.

I might as well jump in the conversation too. I have a 99 vert and my problem is that the top corner of the window ( passenger side ) catches the convertible roof line every time i close the door.
Is there an ajustement i can do myself ?
