I did, and since having it replaced have picked out these four defects with new replacement roofs fit and closing procedures, hence the car is booked into the dealers this Wednesday

1. Soft top now twisted and sits flush with the bodywork on drivers side and has a 1.5cm gap on the passenger side causing a very inaffective seal when closed.

2. Everytime the roof folds away it comes out with a oily film on the inside of the rear glass panel.

3. Locking Mechanism on rear tray doesn't close/slide fully into closer.

4. New roof not as tight fitting as old roof and sort of collapses around the DS rear view window.

Also they damaged part of the trim when they replaced the roof..(Told them about this at time of picking up car)
A guy in a shed could do it better.
