Top hold down in coupe hatchback.
Today when I unlocked my removeable top from the hatchback area, I noticed that the locking device for the removeable top and the hatchback was loose. I first took out the carpet covered plastic cover that surrounds the locking device but found that the four fasteners that hold it in place were round headed bolts with the nuts behind the rear facia. I was relieved to find out that I could get to the nuts by removing the tailights and not the entire facia. I did not have to remove the carpeted cover inside of the hatchback. So, if any of you have this problem, the fix is behind the tailights. :D :D

Re: Top hold down in coupe hatchback. (Cirrus8)
Yeap figured that out the other day when the "hatch Ajar" light was staying on. Needless to say I was a little relieved that the nuts were behind the tail lights as well. I took both sides loose and locktited them all.
