Convertible top issue
Picked up new 2022 lc 500 vert. Noticed a little bigger gap between windshield and roof on passenger side. Drivers side barely can stick pinky finger in. Passenger side finger fits easily. Wondering if it can be adjusted. I will call dealor tomorrow and keep updated.
best of luck with the roof, can't help you rhere.

Maybe ‘ole timers’!

Just got back from dealer, shop foreman took pictures said he needed to make some phone calls. The gap on passenger side roof is clearly not as tight as drivers side so there is no issue showing the problem. Next appointment is Wednesday morning. As I was leaving shop foreman said it's probably just an adjustment. Not sure how this passed quality control in Japan. Any of you other convertible owners ever have a problem with the roof being tighter on one side than the other or am I the only lucky one?

do you have any wind noise from either side? squeaks, creaks?
i can't really grasp those 'inside' pictures (orientation, what part, etc)... the outside pictures look the same on drivers/passenger sides?

This is normal according to Lexus and the dealership. A few vert owners asked my dealership shop buddy about this and he says Japan came back saying it’s engineering to allow some flexing and to alleviate stresses during twisting/flexing.

That's interesting. There is no wind or water leakage but the passenger side has a larger gap than the drivers side. It's hard to believe that is normal. I'll be bringing the car back to dealer Wed. morning and find out what they say . Otherwise vert. is awesome. Will post when I have more info.They also have another convertible coming in couple weeks and I can compare.
