Default 2002 Mustang Convertible top not sealing perfectly.

My son has a 2002 Convertible and he says when he drives on the highway, there appears to be wind noise coming from the top on the drivers side.

Does anyone know how I can adjust the top or do I need to take it in to be fixed? I'm not a great mechanic, but I'm hoping that there might be a simple fix for this. I am trading cars with him and I have to drive it back from Florida to Nebraska and I really don't want to listen to that for the whole trip.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Shawn

Have you checked to make sure the latches are correctly engaged on both sides?
If you release the top and raise it just a bit does it look like the front edge lines up correctly with the top of the windshield? Have you tried locking the top down with all the windows completely down? Have you examined the latches closely to see if any parts are missing or broken on one of the latches? If none of these things appear to be wrong then I'm in the dark. Hope this helps.
