I was surprised how quiet the Copen was with the roof down. Today I took it out for the first time with the roof up, totally different story! The roads in Thailand are mostly not good, especially the small town I live in. The front roof hinges make a lot of noise. The passenger one doesn't seem to lock down properly and constantly rattles and the drivers side doesn't rattle but pops open a bit when I go over a bumpy stretch of road. There's also some rattling behind me but it was busy in town and I was on my own so I couldn't determine what that is yet. Any fixes for the front hinges not snapping closed ?
Thanks Andrew, obviously a proven fix that works. My problem is when I close the front latches, especially the passenger one, the 'cover' doesn't snap closed over the hinge and pops open when I go over a bump, that's what rattles the most. Actually my trip into town to look at a replacement DVD/GPS player was the only time I had my roof closed in the short time I have had it! Went for dinner and a ride around tonight at 6 pm, back at 7.30 (for footy on TV), and the weather is just perfect at that time of night, no sun to burn my face!
Ah, I was using the sun visor over the clip to try to keep it in place but they are a bit flimsy and move around anyway.
