swang Posted November 10, 2021 Report Share Posted November 10, 2021 More newbie questions, I noticed the tension rope on the driver side has snapped, while the passenger side is still ok. Should I replace both of them? Is this something breaks often or do they indicate problem elsewhere in the roof mechanism? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
