My elastic bands are totally stretched out and floppy. No idea how to fix that beyond going to an upholstery shop and paying them to replace them. The problem is that they see that it's a Porsche and triple the price for the repair!
b) For the bottom part of the side cable, there is a plastic slider attached to the metal structure. In front of this slider there is a metal spring that has to be positioned so that it pushes back on the slider (and the bottom of the cable) . Again, as the bottom of the cable is pushed inwards, the cable will catch on the channel.
Pedro, I really need a picture to get my head around this. Got one?

Put the top half way down and check if the screw that atatches it to "B" pillar is tight. Also loosen it and push eyelet towards inside the car to add tension and tighten. Also the strap that has velcro on it may have pulled loose. Tighten that too.
