    convertible rear won't catch

    I'd take the latch right off the deck lid and clean it with a little degreaser then blow it dry. Give the pivot pin a shot of oil and apply some white grease to the part of the latch that contacts the pin on the lid.

    Brake lights

    Check the SL ground wire at the rear (should be under the left end of the rear cross member), both stop light grounds get tied together then go to the chassis. Remove it and clean the connector and the frame. Also could be a bad SL switch on the brake pedal.

    BODY MOUNT

    I never replaced them on my 78' but saved these two articles just in case I had to. From what I have read, the hardest part is removing the rusty bolts.
