Yesterday I was doing an automotive auction photography gig with a 2006-ish convertible Chevrolet Corvette. I received the car with the top down, and in the midst of a 104 degree day needed to raise the top. No obvious buttons or latches were present and the owners manual, naturally, was on vacation as well. Googling "C6 Corvette top down button" showed where a button should be, but wasn't, so I concluded this car had a manual top instead of power. Thus began an infuriating cycle where Google ignored all attempts to search for manual Corvette top lowering instructions and instead simply INSISTED that what I was actually looking for was the instructions to manually lower a power top.

Agitation multiplied when I finally found the answer, which was reaching blindly under a plastic trim panel for a hidden downward-facing button to open the panel, lift the top up, and then balance the top midway between open and closed while I finesse the plastic tonneau cover panel back down under the rear part of the top. Garbage UX on both the part of Chevrolet and Google. I wish to become a hermit in the woods.
