1968-1977 T-Top Latches


Answer: There are multiple adjustments points on the 1968-1977 Corvette T-Tops (http://www.zip-products.com/Zip/dept.asp?dept_id=3399). All of the outer latches and center locks have adjustment points. To get the your Corvette's t-tops to fit correctly, first loosen the latches and center locks. Then fit the t-tops on to your Corvette, moving and sliding the t-tops into the desired position. Once you have them placed correctly, sit in your Corvette and begin to tighten the adjustment points. Both the latches and center locks have vertical adjustments in them as well. Your t-top can be pulled down tighter by turning the adjustable bolt in the outer latches. The center locks can be adjusted vertically with the use and/or deletion of shims.
