Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hi, I replaced the roof on my 996. I refitted the head lining some days later but I failed to take any pictures to remind mw where the elastic straps anchor to and whichever combination I try the roof lining fails to fold smoothly when closing. Do you have any pictures of the points as I can't make the images out in the 996 manual. Thanks for the other tips on the roof lining. __________________ This post was auto-generated based upon a question asked on our tech article page here: Porsche 911 Carrera Common Convertible Top Problem Repair - 996 (1998-2005) - 997 (2005-2012) - Pelican Parts Technical Article

No, I don't have photos to share. I opened a post in our forums. A Pelican community member may be able to answer your question. - Nick

Thanks, Nick. I just registered and I'm reading through some of the posts but I haven't found exactly what I'm looking for yet. Hopefully some kind person with a 996 or 997 convertible may help me out with a few picks.
