I'm new to the Boxster community and my fears of reliability came true this weekend when raising the convertible top. It appears the attachment bolt from the passenger side black actuator came out mid-operation (pic5) and somehow the ball socket on the driver side of the clamshell/ tonneau cover popped off the track(pic 3,4)?! Not sure the exact order of events, but after searching forums and youtube, I am unsure of how to proceed.
The top will still raise and lower evenly. Both lower connecting arms with plastic endpoints are intact (pic7). The threads seem to be intact where the passenger side hydraulic arm bolt attaches to the transmission assembly (I was able to get them to catch and left it hand tight for now- pic5,6).
If you have experience with these tops please advise and thank you!
