From what I understand and see, given my new glass top, the top should fold like a parallelogram, which would safely encase the glass. Now about the latch, that's another story as I have to adjust...

Is Ragg Top working for you to this day?

I feel the same way about my top, and since it's new, I was wondering about the specific Ragg Topp application you are using. Like all Boxster owners, I want to keep it looking new! Thanks :)
