They are manual on the removable hardtops. You press a button and the closing lever pops out. The lever is then moved to unlatch or latch the roof.

I have a completely manual top. The windshield latching is done by a handle as shown below: (The handle is item 12. BTW, I've never had any issues with the top.)
