Gentlemen,

I am here to report to you that the top is up, a pun(?), and running again. :dance:
Thanks to Maurice and MN 986 and the other silent well wishers, I have completed my first significant repair.

I do have one more question regarding the clamshell.
During the PPI back in Dec 2009, it was noted that the pointed part of the clamshell, the driver side, was misaligned - the pointed part used to go down about 1/2 inch more than it should when the top was fully opened or closed.

As a by product of the repair, the alignment is much better but still not perfect.
Is there a way to adjust the fit/alignment as this pointed parted of the clamshell when the top is fully opened or closed?

Again thank you everyone for help.

Michael
