Take it to an upholstery shop. You will be glad you spent the extra money for quality work. Just my $.02

What seems to help mine, is to wash the top, and while it dries, release the catches. The fabric will shrink. It will loosen up again, but just repeat the process.

One thing I strongly stress, is DO NOT drive the car with the top up and the windows down.
