Default New top installed incorrectly

Hello: very frustrated, had new top installed and 2 new hydronic lifts replaced. The shop that worked on it made it worst than when I bought it in. Now the top doesn’t function, rear defroster doesn’t work and the convertible top button is blinking. Also, they misplaced all of the fasteners that hold the trunk liner. They said they don’t know how to fix. Can someone recommend a place near Richmond Virginia that knows how to repair and fix all these issues ?

Default New top Installed - Top won’t function

I have a lot of electrical issues mainly from a company that installed my new top, top won’t function, rear defroster isn’t working, top is misaligned, spoiler button doesnt work. All of these items worked when they installed the new top. It appears shop didn’t know what they were doing now I have a number of electrical issues unsolved. Desperate for a qualified crossfire expert that can repair my 2005 Crossfire convertible. I live in Midlothian Virginia which is a suburb of Richmond, Virginia

If you are on the face book Crossfire forum page, you can try reaching out to Brian Hoffman. He travels around the country fixing Crossfires.
Also, you might get more responses if you move your post to this section:

I hope that you will get the help that you need.
I've only had my car for less than 2 years, so I'm not very good with the convertible part of it.
