Soft top pins

Post by DavieK » Sun May 31, 2009 11:04 pm

One of the cap screws for the pins at the back of our S1's soft top has now slackened off and becasue the way the are fitted on the passenger side is anti clockwise it loosens almost every time the top is fitted. I was thinking of just using some retainer (loctite 601 or the likes) but would like to know if anybody has had this problem and found a way around it?
