Rob996 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 The clamshell cover will not lift on the passenger side to allow the top to be put up. The drivers side of the cover starts to lift but the passenger side does not move. I can not see anything stuck but there is not many places to get a good look. has anyone else had this issue?
