looks fine mate, just missing little flaps which will cover big round bolt once hardtop is fitted

Ohhh cool :) thanks for the reply.

So i presume the bolt thing is built into the car...? Ive never tried to fit the thing yet...

Do i need some sort of special tool?

And i presume i can get some of those flap things from the main dealer yeh?

The hardtop itself looks correct.. But, you should have 2 pins that fit onto the body of the car (1 on each side) the hardtops holes (as seen in the picture) then slide over the pins, you should then have 2 big nuts (ha ha) which bolt the hardtop down onto the pins ! :D
