JL Trektop Ultra Issue

[pubmeister]

Hi all,

I have had the new Trektop ultra for a couple months now. Since the beginning, there has been an issue on the driver side where the top won't line up properly, making it difficult to latch up. This can be seen in the pictures below, where there is a much larger gap on the left side from both the inside and outside. I have to physically pull the top in every time in order to get it in the correct slot.

I didn't think much of it, but recently, a very annoying whistling noise from the wind has developed from that spot. It's a lot worse at highway speeds. I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this, and what the cause could be. @Bestop if you could offer a fix that would be great
