Stupid Soft Top Question - Wrangler

unzipped

I don't know if things have changed since I got my '99 wrangler but it sounds like you're trying to remove the plastic knobs that hold the side adaptor/channel thingy's. You don't want to remove those.

The paddle latches,(those latches that connect the front of the soft top to the windshield),have a safety hook that keeps the top from accidently flying off while driving. The latch must be flipped, then you make sure the safety hook is free also. don't know what else could be the problem other than the hard plastic edges of the soft top that are 'hooked" to those side adaptors I spoke of have not been freed up. If this is not making any sense, call a dealership or just go by and ask somebody there.

Just wait until you take the doors off too.... :-)

Thanks.

I tried to cancel the post, but I guess it didn't take. I figured this out earlier. I just hadn't looked on the outside of the vehicle.

I also saw I didn't need to loosen the knobs on the roll bar.

My wife and I drove around on some dirt roads with the top down today. It's almost like riding a motorcycle, except you can avoid eating bugs :-)

We did drive past a chicken ranch though, and that was pretty overwhelming. Sometimes this "country air" isn't all it's cracked up to be. :-)

Glad you got it off. The addiction begins.... :)
