Problem With Hardtop Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
my hard top is not lockin on the driverside and seems to be up a centimeter on the driverside, and it wont go down. I looks lopsided. in the back it locks perfectly as well as the passengerside, but the driver side front wont lock and wont fit into place, i will take pic soon, Buts is sooo annoying because of the wind noise in the cabim PLEASE HELPPPPPP
Offhand, I'd say your top is warped but before that conclusion can be reached just double check that the rear pins are all the way down and fully locked. The seat back might need to be moved forward so the locking levers can be rotated fully. Also, the heater plug/wire might get in the way causing the lever to not move properly. Also, try lifting on the rear, driver's side to make sure that side is truly locked down. If the pin is not "slotted" properly, it will not be "under" the locking grooves when the lever is turned. When you move the lever, can you actually see the top get "sucked" down? Other than a warped top, the above issues would mimmic what you just described.
i believe the manual says something about trying to lock down the front latches first if you're having alignment problems - i also have seen this happen when someone forces the top once or twice - it can definitely warp.

the kit provides for a more lower "bulkhead" on top of the windshield header....plus some other specific stuff for the sides.
try snapping the fronts on first...
try and post pics, it's easier to troubleshoot - make sure you use a flash.
