Convertible top cables
1981.2000. What is the easiest way to tighten the cables that run down the sides of the top? How tight should they be? RB

Re: Convertible top cables
i changed my top and with the rear pannel off i put the wire under the clamp
then grabed the wire with vicegrips and pulled on it then while pulling tighten the screws
for the clamp.with the top up

Reasonably snug. Be mindful that the front is held by a small 1/8 inch rivet with a shoulder on it set in the sheet metal of the front bow and not one of the mooring posts from a super tanker.
