Cabroliet/hardtop front roof latches

one of my latches is looser than the other and tends to rattle when driving. Is there a bolt/pin/spring I can replace/tighten to stiffen things up a little. anything in the workshop manual about this??
any help would be great

Striker plate. Check your TSBs.

They can come loose, they are secured by 2 screws. You need to remove the trim paneling to get to it. I applied some blue loctite and it seems to have cured the problem.
