Roll bar pops up in corners, Just lowered car??????

I just put a set of lowering coils into a 1991 500sl.Now when I take a left or right turn with the top down the roll bar will pop right up. There are some sensors on the rear lower control arms. Are they for the roll bar? If so how do I adjust them? Does anything else have to be done when the car is lowered? Thanks.....

The sensors under the control arms are for the roll bar. Whenever the car leaves the gound the switch activates the roll bar. On late models they have a control unit with a mercury switch. Your switches are either out of adjustment , most of the time they are broken when this happens. Make sure they are not loose.I dont remember the procedure for adjusting though. Someone jump in here if they remember the procedure.
