lowering convertible top questions
I lower my top 1/2 way unzip the plastic window,lay it in the well and then push out the sections between the bows so they don't pinch anywhere (it's in my 66 FSM to do it that way also) but I've done it that way for over 30 years on all the plastic window convertibles I've owned and never ruined a top yet. Glass window tops don't usually need to be unzipped but the sections in between the bows do need pushed out till they get a memory of how that store, then I just lower them and watch to make sure they fold correctly. pushing out the material helps it fold lower so the boot goes on a bit easier too!
