Angry This doesn't look right!

Hi all,
Well, I was out taking measurements for my new bed/floor install and noticed that there is a gap between the fiberglass flange and the roof of the van. I had seen this before but wasn't too concerned. However, I am concerned now as the gap seems to be growing/getting wider. I also counted 17 screws/bolts along the sides and back that were not connected to the roof of the van at all! I do not see any gaps to the outside so some sort of bond is holding but I am worried about the top detaching or eventually getting leaks. How can this be fixed? Any/all suggestions are welcome!

(I have sent an email to TCI - they installed the top)

Here's a link to some photos:

False alarm. UGH!

The fiberglass top is attached to the thin skin of the van. I couldn’t see if without looking under the flange.

Whew!
