Default Soft top fitment issue....

I have a 2-door '14 Wrangler Sport with a soft top. I've had the pleasure of running it nekkid this week. Tomorrow is supposed to storm so I just closed it back up and noticed this gap over my driver side door surround right under the top. The other side does not do this. I've seen this in the past but I didn't think it was this bad. I've readjusted each side individually and can't seem to correct it. Anybody else having this sort of problem? Any solutions? One pic is outside in the dark. The other was after I put it back in the garage. Thanks!

Check to make sure there's nothing on the surround and that the cable isn't hung up on anything. I don't have nearly that kind of gap with my '13 2dr top.

Did you ever fix this?

I think my issue was that those little pins that allow the sunrider to flip open don't always stay engaged when I go to the other side and work on my top.
