What's definitely different is the Sunrider feature, that allows you to flip back the part over the front seats. On the sides, there are 2-piece straight bars, with a plastic slider about 12" long. The slider is supposed to stay in place over the joint between the 2 pieces to keep them straight when the top is closed. Are these the ones you're having trouble with? If so (and after reading the owner's manual) it seems that you should just be able to slide the plastic sliders forward into place and they should stay. Does the one othat stays in place snap into place? If so, examine the two sides to see why the other side doesn't. Other than that, I can just suggest that you go step-by-step according to the instructions in the owner's manual, being sure that both sides are done the same. Good luck with it!

Fred/Mike,

Thanks for taking the time to go look for me. Unfortunately, thats not the problem. I have no problem operating the Sunrider at all! Its the bar that is right above the driver and passengers heads that runs across from side to side. It has on both ends a plastic half circle fitting (for lack of a better word) that is suppose to sit on top of the side rail and slightly pop up/support the top. The bar does not seem to be long enough and one end of it always pops off of the side bar. If you look at it again, you will definitely see what i am talking about. Thanks again!

Mike
