Just purchased an 04 C4S cab. Booked into Swindon next weekend for a sports exhaust. I seem to have a problem in that the roof will go down ok, but when I try to put it up, the rear trim panel lifts out of the way ok and the two little side flaps flip up out of the way but there the roof stays frozen and won't go any further. Has anyone else experienced this?

ps asked the service guy about upgrading the lights to discharge and he said Porsche don't do a kit. Said by law a car with discharge lights must have self leveling suspension fitted and that the after market kits available put too much load on the electrics and will eventually fry the wiring or the heat will melt the headlight reflector and he has seen this happen. Shame because I would also like to upgrade my lights. He advised fitting xenon bulbs to give approx 30% more light, available fron Halfords etc.
