Congrats, and welcome to the forum.

As for your top situation..

There is a handle on top of the pump in the trunk. Make sure you turn it to manual mode. That should allow you to drop the top yourself without losing all the fluid. However, depending on where your leak is, you may lose it no matter what. Your first job will be figuring out what is leaking and then fixing it. No point in having a 'vert if you can't put the top down right.

Check the sticky FAQ's thread for a link to the convertible FSM supplement. That will give you pictures and diagrams and descriptions for diagnosis and repair of the top, pump, and rams.

If you get stuck, let us know and we'll help out as best we can.

Good call on the registry! You beat me to it. But you forgot to post pictures, so you're gonna be in trouble for that. It's ok though, we'll get over it really quick.

Glad to have you aboard. Enjoy that new ride!
