E93 - Convertible Mechanism Maintenance

First off - sorry if this has been covered before, did a search and could only find a post (which was also extremely useful) about proper lubrication of the top seals and some parts of the mechanism.

Down to business - Over the past couple weeks I have noticed a small 'clanking' sound coming from the drivers side rear of the hardtop when going over manholes or medium sized bumps in the road. I'd be willing to bet that the top just needs some small adjusting/tightening of the locking mechanism (where the rear glass portion locks into place). I was just wondering if anyone has a decent DIY handy regarding the convertible top and where the main locking mechanisms are, what should be tightened, and the best way of going about it.

I'd prefer to spend a few minutes tightening some bolts in my driveway instead of bringing it to the dealer and ending up with a juicy bill.
