    My problem is that one back window is stuck. I pushed the rear piece down and forward before putting the window down in the slots. So the window doesn't go all the way down in the back. Now I can't get that back to open.
    Update: I did finally get the back to pop up by getting inside the trunk and pushing up on the sections that connect to the cylinders. The ones disconnected on bith sides, in the trunk. Yeah, I'm sure I looked funny with my feet in the air, out the back of the trunk, while pushing up to open that. LOL 😂

Or how can I close my trunk manually without getting inside the trunk ? Pls if you know I would appreciate advice

    Thanks for the video i could close the roof following the video, but the roof doesnt move automatically, one of the back cilinders make noise and i have seen the hydraulic tank is empty, can be the problem that theres no hydraulic or a cylinder is broken?

    • @HeyboysGarage

      At the two hinges where you put the belt when you open the trunk. There is a clip handle you need to push either up or down depending on if yours is up or down before the rest of the process. I completely forgot to put that part in the video since mine was already down

    Thank you for the video. My rear headrests popped up over a bump and the area in the back seat is so tight to push them down. I am thinking about opening the top manually and after I reset the rear headrests, can I close the top automatically? Thank you.

    • @HeyboysGarage
      @HeyboysGarage  Рік тому

      I know it’s a tight area but you can still push them down with the top up. I have done it a few times. But you should be able to manually put the top down and let the roll bar go back down… I don’t think since the roll bar is up should prevent you from manually opening the top
