> On the right side, the pin falls right into the bracket like it's

> no longer drops into the bracket, it just hits the back surface of the
> widnshield frame. I have to push and pull at the top and the windshield
> frame to get everything lined up so I can latch the top.

> No collisions or bumps that would have thrown anything off. The top is
> in decent shape so I don't think anything is physically broken or loose.
> I know there must be some adjustment that can be made to re-align this
> pin, I just don't know where to look. The VW service manual is no help,
> it does not discuss the convertible top.

> Anyone dealt with something like this before? We'd appreciate any > suggestions!
