Howdy yall,

I've recently acquired a beautiful piece of machinery that needs a Lil TLC. My baby is a 2005 convertable.
when I got her she was already in need of some work. The dealership had just bought her at auction and really didn't know anything about her. They said the top didn't come down due to an electrical problem. Being I've never had a convertable and there is not an owners manuel... I've never tried. What is the procedure to lower and raise it? I'm worried I'll get it down and not be able to get it back up. Also, while on the topic of the top... she's pulling away from the back 'glass' should I replace the entire top or just reseal the glass? I've read some threads of repairing the glass, but, that consists of partially lowering the top....sigh....
there are other things with the top as well, but, I'll bring that back up later... one step at a time...

thank you for all your help in advance!!
