Good luck! The mechanism back there isn't super complicated and, as you've found, it's pretty easy to figure out how everything works. While you're in there make sure you check all the mechanism connection points and try to figure out why it got loose in the first place. Torque up the bolts, lube the friction points, check the foam rain liner for any tears/holes, and make sure the drains are clear of debris.

My top came loose a few months ago, and when it did, it drove a metallic arm right through the foam liner...
