NOTE: To assure a water tight seal around the window of the 
Convertible, it is essential that the windows and top be properly 
aligned. Whenever any regulator unit or glass is removed and 
replaced, it is necessary to check the alignment and make adjust-
ments before replacing interior trim.

 Instructions for making adjustments to top and win-

dows may be found on Pages 112 thru 115.

 Water test the windows after adjustment and correct if 
leaks are found.
