convertible top mechanical problems
 

Hi All, I've had my 2010 370Z for about a year. Several months ago, the top wouldn't mechanically go down. I finally got it back up (which is fortunate since I was on vacation at the time).
I've taken it to several repair places including the Nissan dealership which was way worse than useless.
I've learned that it is in fact not electrical but mechanical and that a "rivet" which guides the retracing top is missing on one or both sides.
I have the exploded version of the top which doesn't show alleged rivets.
Anybody know where I can take this for repair?
Thank you, John

More than one thread on repairing verts and at least one shop that has parts at a reasonable price. If yo can't find what you need using the site's search, go to just about any web search engine and add "site:the370z.com" to your search string. Eg, https://html.duckduckgo.com/html?q=c...%3Athe370z.com

If the dealership you've visited is Antioch Nissan, I would definitely not use them. My understanding is that none of their techs are familiar with the ZR's top.
