go there. It's awsome. i basically did what they did (i used some simple vinyl top cleaner and then a vinyl top sunscreen+dresser) and my top became super black and looked brand new. I can't remember who sent me the link to that a couple months ago, maybe LASK2? but thanks again cause it kicks ***.

Re: (USDM EG)
those straps are awesome, I just ordered a set! I was helping my top close because those are so stretch that the top kinda comes down rough and I realized those were the culprit. I also got the raggtopp products.

Re: (Mr.60trim)
get some extra fabric from someone who has a ruined top and have an upholstery place put it where your convertible frame rubs with the top.. that will make it so that the parts where it stretches won't wear out and tear

Re: (dagle)
i noticed today when putting my top down that the plastic part does not fold completely perfect the way it should.
if you notice carefully (with an older top) the plastic section in the middle folds outward in a certain spot. this usually leaves a dull mark on the middle section of the plastic. i also noticed the same thing on my friends top. i believe this is what leads to breaking of plastic tops.
what i do now is
1. lower the top half way
2. get out of my car and push in on the middle section
3. finish lowering the top
maybe this will work for you. especially on cooler days

my top started doing that a few months ago and I have to do the same thing as well, it's so annoying.
