The new pins have a gray rubber cover instead of black. I really could not see a difference in the latches.

Ok cool. I haven't had the roof off yet so maybe they've been updated. Did they help?

I think adjusting the rear latch one turn helped more than anything. Also putting dielectric grease on the seals helped too.

Old discussion but i only drive my 2005 with the top off and windows down, an when i leave the car the "intrusion sensor on" displays. And when i lock it the alarm starts to scream after a good 30-45 seconds. I can only avoid the alarm if i do not lock my car.

What is wrong?

Is there anything in your car that might move and set off the motion sensor?
Air freshener, etc?

No, nothing i know of.

I'm thinking on testing the sensors by blocking them.

Are they ultrasonic operated?
