Default C6 Convertible top

The #2 bow in the top of my car is broken. Can I just order a #2 bow for the top and replace it myself, or do I have to bring it to the shop. Can someone help with this problem?

The right side bow broke off in my 2010 GS. The top was also hard to latch. Both end links of the bow snapped. Dealer said it was not aligned properly from the factory. They replaced the bow and realigned the top. Works great now.

Make sure you bring it to someone who knows how to work on the top.
