James Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Obviously the most important thing to check out on a convertible is the roof. Be sure to check very carefully for good and proper operation, any weird noises etc. Check the roof stowage box in the boot as these are prone to breaking too. There should also be a roof key in the fuse box I believe. Other than the roof it's really just the usual A4 bits and bobs to check for :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nellys 300zx Posted September 18, 2015 Author Share Posted September 18, 2015 thanks james is the roof box made of plastic if broken is it easy to replace. and what do you mean by the roof key? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Yes it's plastic although I think it may have a bit of carpet on the top if I remember correctly. The roof key is a tool that allows you to raise and lower the roof manually should you need to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
