I considered myself brave for taking on the Jeep's soft top. I wasn't prepared to take it all the way off but I did use the fold back sunroof feature. It works well, nice open air feel without much hassle - I didn't say NO hassle, just not much.
Also, the ride is a HUGE improvement over the previous Wrangler...
Look, a HAND PUPPET! Actually, it's just my thick, clumsy hands trying to re-secure the Jeep's top.
When I was ready to cover the Jeep up again I couldn't figure out how to get the sides to slip back into their slots. I marched into the garage and picked up a rubber mallet and a screwdriver thinking "Oh, it''s gonna go in alright..."
Luckily common sense kicked in and I realized I was trying to force the plastic guide (used for leverage) into the slot rather than the retaining rail. Once I realized this, the process took about 2 min.
I had to remind myself several times "This isn't a CJ, just relax."
