Hi there,

Dead easy, 1. Open the catch

2. On the metal part that hinges down you will see a "hexagon" shaped part about 10mm long. Un-clip this from its plastic housing and turn it clockwise 2-3 flats and try the catch again.

3. Keep doing this until the catch just "snugs" the top onto the rubber seal on the windowframe when you clamp it shut.

You will find that a small adjustment makes a big differance, just use trial and error to get it right.

All 4 hardtop clamps and the 2 soft top clamps are the same.

What happens when you reach the end of the adjustment on the screw, is there a way to re-position the catch? Thanks

You would be best to post a completely new topic.
