The Raven Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Yeah the middle one might help. Do you have pictures of said car? Failing that the threads must be shot and thats no fun to strip down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raven Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 he bought a na aero top supra for 2050 quid I brought one for alot less than that Infact i hold the current forum record for buying the cheapest aero if not the cheapest Supra with MOT, TAX and no major faults. Never suffered that issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raven Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 (edited) you never use it.us in you never lock it? No i use the four outer ones. You are aware how the roof works? I thought that one was used when you stick it on when you go to the shops and just want to dump it back on for a short time.

dude Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 The actual mounts in the targa top are loose, you need to dissmantle the top and tighten them up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hodge Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 When the fastening bolts i.e threads get warn (from removing and replacing the roof), even when you tighten then up really right they work them selves a little loose. The only way to cure this is to replace all the bolts and maybe the mounts and the jobs a gudun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
