Condition
Some customers may comment that the removable top has stress cracks developing on the right side and/or has crazing across the tint.
Cause
The cracking may be caused by an unsealed edge from a machining operation. The crazing may be the result of UV load.
Correction
Replace the existing roof with a new one that doesn't have all the hardware attached.
At time of repair, the weatherstrip retainers, weatherstrips and rear latch handles will have to be transferred from the old roof.
