I crashed my 2020 300GTS and the top case got a little scratched on the left side and now will not close and lock because the little receiver pin got sheared off. I would welcome any thoughts or ideas on how to repair without forking out the dough for a new top case.

Sorry to hear about your accident. I'm going to go look at mine and see if I can come up with some ideas.

Here is a close-up of the pin itself. A U bracket and a bolt with a locking nut should do the trick.
