Beautiful 986, Derek!
I had a GAHH glass retrofit professionally installed on my 986 many years ago and had the same issue. I actually had two new GAHH tops installed and they both failed to lock as easily as the OE top. I think they both loosened up a little over time but never with the ease of the OE top.
I don't know if your installer can do anything to loosen it up for you. I chose to live with mine.
BTW, my first replacement top suffered from the glass separation issue that wasn't uncommon on the early retrofit glass tops.
Best of luck,
