560SL hardtop rattle. any way to adjust the rear pins?

My hardtop rattles at the pins behind each seat. When the hardtop is latched and tightened down, there is fairly significant play in the top.

I found a thread on another MB board where a poster had a similar issue and apparently someone emailed the poster a pdf to address the issue.

Does anyone know how to adjust the pins to alleviate the rattling?

TIA

Tia, go to the C/R 107 section of the Benzworld.org forum ( www.benzworld.org ) and search for hardtop threads. You'll find the guidance including a .pdf file on adjusting the hard top pins.
