Default Help me with my roof :(

recently bought an s2k which had an ez-on roof fitted and i'm wondering if in fact it's sitting perfect?

it just looks a little horrible around the top.....






just looking for opinion


The tension cables are all ok, I've recently changed the weatherstrips and have tried tubing on the catches

Thee is no wind noise, is it a case of the bar in the middle not correct???

It's really upsetting to look at

Mine is a MY00 and had the top converted to glass. Looks exactly like that but has wind noise ): nothing has gone out so far. But water does streak down on the inside when I wash my car.

That doesnt look right at all. I don't know what to tell you to fix it but I definitely wouldn't leave it like that.

If I were you I would leave it... I only have the top up when it's raining, or below 50 degrees. Other wise top is down.

Have you tried contacting Ez-On to see what they say?

whoever installed it didnt do it right. There was another guy with a similar problem a few months ago but he was in ireland. not sure if he ever got the problem fixed but something is not sitting right. I would recommend pulling it apart from the header and working your way back. I usually find the the cable pop rivets and not tight and this causes a loss of tension and makes it look like what you have.
