    Opening/Closing Soft Top for PV

    Is there a proper way to open close soft top on 68/69 for a Performance verification?

    Getting ready to make some minor adjustments to my soft top. I can count on one hand how many times I have had the top up in the past 18 months.

    If I try to latch the front first, the rear pins dont seem to line up nicely and catch the latch mechanism. If I latch the rear first, it goes in nicely and I just have to use a little effort to get the front down.

        Took me over a week to get the top up after having been folded since May. First hooked the bails on the rear bow onto the latches, waited two days, then secured the rear latches, waited two more days, hooked the front latches onto the windshield frame, waited two more days and then fastened the front latches into final position. Go through the same drill every year, but the top is nice and tight when erected.
