Hello All,

Over a period of time the cable which keeps the front of your soft top roof attached can corrode and break. It took five years for mine to do this, but depending how you store your car it could happen before or after this time.

Step 1

Order the following part from your local Lotus Dealership : B116V0064H ( mine cost around £32 )


Step 2

Undo the old broken cable ( see picture ) you will need to open up the glued fabric around the side supports and use a small allen key to release. Turn the key anti-clockwise.
