What other issues have you had with the top? I also have a 2015 and have had zero issues except for the above mentioned header panel.

The top would pop out of the moldings at the quarter windows each time it was lowered/raised, a drain line would slip out of the slots, causing water to enter the rear floor & an arm wouldn't lower flush when the top was down. It costs $250 for a shop experienced with these tops to correct GM's engineering flaws. My vehicle is under warranty but it was time for a final *knocks on wood* solution.

I guess it depends on who your dealer is. Hope your issues are over with.

How do you remove this top plastic? Do you have pictures?

Replaced my header panel yesterday on my 15. I had two bosses that were broken off and rattling. Thank you to all that posted advice, how-to’s and pictures. I felt a little intimidated loosening the front of the soft top but it was much easier than it looked. If this happens again, I will reinforce the area around the bosses with a build up of J B Weld.
Taking it to St. Ignace Michigan in the UP next weekend for a car show. Not showing, just going to cruise and enjoy the beautiful area. We’ve had this car for a year now and just enjoy the heck out of it. |

Header panel replacement
Having mine replaced at the stealership, what do you think the time would be to change it. Took it in because the top not secure kept coming on, checked driver side hook switch, it is defective and not a adjustment rod issue. Thanks

Phew thanks for this thread.
2013 SS just started this issue a few weeks ago and it is super annoying. I will be looking at this tonight. Part is now about $85 still not horrible to get rid of the rattle. I may at first try some double sided tape like was suggested earlier. |

Anyone know how long a shop bills for this? Hour?
How long does it normally take? |

It truly amazes me, because GM has made convertibles since 1912 and they still can't get it right.

A couple of strips of double sided tape between the panel and the top really quieted it down.
I was shocked. I will see how long that lasts. |

I saw an old post that suspected the screws are too long and crack the bosses! Sounds reasonable ... I am replacing my panel... looks like you do have to peel back the convertible top a bit though. I will get some shorter screws to replace the originals so I am ready! Does all this sound possibly right everyone? 2014 SS Auto.
