I'm so disappointed! Hopefully it is fixed... I can't afford this problem since I'm in Seattle !

Initially I wanted to re-live a prior rag top life...Fortunatley, the road show allowed me to get back in line several times to get a good "experience" in the Carbio...

I decided that a hard top is my choice--- not for this reason. During the drives I managed to finally get the Smart fast enough to deliver the flapping snapping rag top wind noise of my youth... this is just more info to solidify my decision to pass on the PITA to clean any way rag top

therefore NO TENSION! Let me see him stick he hand through there with the ROOF CLOSED!!!
Good point....
