Condition
Some customers may comment of a popping, snapping or itching type noise when driving over rough roads. They may also comment that the noise
appears to be coming from the convertible top because the noise is at ear level.
Cause
This condition may be caused by a loose pin in the door striker.
Correction
Use a large screw driver and apply slight pressure across the door striker pin. If a popping or snapping noise is heard, replace the door striker.
1. Using a soft marker or masking tape, outline the position of the striker.
2. Remove the upper retaining screw and loosen the bottom one.
3. Rotate the striker downward.
