OH boy!!!!
do you have alot of catching up on reading material...
tons of info/problems for primarily 2011 and early 2012 vert models
look through the posts, filled with info.

to answer your question counting from the front of the car , the ribs ( or bows) that support the convertible top.
there have been many instances where the 5th bow breaks/bends out of shape thereby causing the rubber seal near the trunk(where the roof meets the trunk) to pull away from the trunk area which creates a large gap between the roof and the trunk.large enough in some cases to put your hand in there(which should not be the case).
