996 Hardtop question

[DGW67]

Hi

Just fitted the hardtop to my 996 for the first time since buying the car. It doesn't look like it fits correctly in the interior, I had expected it to fit flush with the rear shelf above the back seats and the pastic bits where it locks in do not sit directly onto this shelf, leaving a small gap where the locking bolt mechanism is visible.

Is this the way it is suppossed to fit? It looks fine from the outside and is locked in place perfectly, just seems a bit untidy.

No, that's the way it is - and is probably why I never use mine !!

That's how it fits, it's fine.

They have a tendency to creak if you don't grease them first, someone is sure to know which grease/how to do it.
