    91 miata top not fastened properly loose with no rain rail.

    My top is fairly new but was not installed right. The rain rail appears to be not installed and the top GETS FLOPPIER EACH TIME THAT I PUT IT UP. I live in Ellenton. Who does anyone know that can fix this issue without having to buy a new convertible top.

    Thank you

    The rain rail is hidden. Maybe pictures would help.

    It is ripping apart at the fasteners. Got 3 opinions from top installers all saying it's time for a new OUCH top!
    I used to live in Huntersville, NC and now I'm semi retired in Florida!

    I used to live in Huntersville too before I moved to Socal in '06.

    A new top with a rainrail installed will be $750-1000. You can do it yourself with an assistant. R*speed has some nice tops for the price. Other option is to find one off anther car in good shape already on the frame.
