I was out cruising in the doba the one day and noticed that the chrome strip that runs across the front of the vinyl top was rattling in the wind. Come to find out it looks like someone or something got caught in it and pulled one of the mounts off and ripped a screw out of the other. Any thoughts on how to fix it on the car or will the top have to come off?

That side trim is fastened from behind. Not sure if that style trim was held with screws or clips. I have had the trim in that position on my Mirada off, lots of stuff have to come out to get in there.

Great. Maybe I could get a screwdriver bit in there with a ratcheting wrench to tighten the lower screw and possibly some thread locker to keep it in place. The one mount I saw broke free of the spot weld on the back side.
