Default Topless
Hi fellow vert owner, I just had my top replaced and they told me not to open my roof 2-4 weeks!!!!!!! Is this normal?? I am so upset over that since it has been so nice out.

Thanks

We had ours replaced a couple of months ago and they told us to leave it up for a week, then to put the top up while warm before storing overnight.

It is just to get the fabric streched properly. I was told the same thing like 5 years ago when I got my top.

Never heard of it, but I would follow the installers instructions. I would hate to pull staples out and restretch the fabric.

It started to rip on both sides from going up and down.
