Howdy I just got done doing a 2000 mile round trip to TX and back. My hard top had a wind whistle in my right ear. I pulled down on the latch and it would go away. Is there any adjustment to these latches or the plate they press against to make it a bit tighter? Or is a piece of weather strip in my future?

Thanks
Mike

There is no up/down adjustment but you can adjust fore/aft a bit. Try loosening the bolts and pushing the plate forward as far as it will go. You can shim the plate down a bit too with flat fender washers.

You should be grateful that it’s only your right ear. My MIC top sounds like a wind tunnel. FORD-Quality is job 9!
