Remove the convertible top assembly (see CONVERTIBLE TOP ASSEMBLY REPLACEMENT ).
Remove the convertible top cloth in the numbered sequence.
Install the cloth in the reverse order of removal, and note these items:
- To prevent wrinkles when installing the cloth, make sure the material is stretched evenly over the frame before securing the screws and rivets.
- After installing the cloth, reinstall the top assembly. Check the operation of the top, and inspect the cloth for wrinkles.
- Check that the weatherstrip fits flush.
- Check that each door glass contacts the weatherstrips evenly. If necessary, adjust each retainer (see DOOR GLASS ADJUSTMENT ).
- Check for water leaks (see step 17 in DOOR GLASS ADJUSTMENT ).
- Test-drive and check for wind noise and rattles.
