Default 2014 top latches

Hello there Spyder 2454 here, new to the forum and to mustangs. I have a new to me 2014 convertible w/28000 mi. and the right top latch is loose and was wondering how to tighten it up? See only 1 screw holding latch and threaded shaft the handle attaches to. What next?

I know on my 2003 if I loosen the set screw and turn the threaded hook in or out, I can adjust how tight the top clamps to the header. I do not know how the 2014 is set up.

Only 1 torx head screw and the threaded stud the handle attaches to. The handle will not spin because of such close quarters, unless I'm missing something.
