I installed a new convertible top on my car today but now it will not close.  It needs to travel about 1 to 2 inches more to latch it closed.  Are there any adjustments i can do to make it travel further?

Just wanted to update my issue. I did get the top to close. It was very tight. I had to manually push the top down while i engaged the latch. After some time I’m now able to open and close the top without any problems. This project turned out remarkably well. The top looks OEM but now I have a glass window. I think the entire project cost me about $700ish. My car looks better than it ever has.
