Emergency roof closing (No string bit)

Post by leegsi »

I nearly had the do the emergency roof closing thing but when I looked there is no string bit to release the parcel shelf.

Luckily it was just a stored code that I had to clear to allow it to close but for next time does anyone have a picture of where the string bit should go so I can put one on.

It latches round the end of the piston so you can pull it backwards (tilting the shelf downwards) obviously you need to free the hydraulic tap first or this would be impossible and freeing the hydraulic tap with the roof folded into the boot isnt the easiest of jobs either.
