I would need some advice
I had my soft top replaced in Oklahoma for my 2003 911 Carrera. It took them for ever to get it right. I discovered a few things that make me wonder and of course the place that was contracted by Porsche to do the soft top replacement is telling me they did it all right and did a wonderful job.
They broke a few things along the way but I just discovered that
1. I have water on the rear passenger side seat when it rains and I wonder if this is related with having the soft top replaced and
2. (see pictures attached) when I open the top using the door lock I see that there are two plastic pieces attached to the top frame with rivets that don't look right (one on each side).
Can anyone help? I was trying to find a soft top installation diagram that would show if the parts are installed correct but could not. Hans

I'm not sure about the installation pictures, but I'll bet the water issue is due to clogged drains.
Water that runs off the soft top and the clamshell cover goes into channels at the rear of the soft top, and then flows down into drains near the rear wheels. These can get clogged with junk. Clean them out.
Search around for a DIY.
