Default softtop is loud....

Is there a mod to make the softtop not so damn loud while driving? I saw that there were brackets that one user made to make the top close easier i think, but i was wondering if there was a way to make the center of the soft top come down a little more... i've noticed when i pull it down while driving the sound completely goes away.

hmm, i say you give it a try. A little back a replaced them because to much air was going in.

After i replaced them, no wind what so ever.

you have an 01 model, there is actually a service bulletin for your softtop strikers. If you haven't done so already, upgrade your soft top latches to the hardtop strikers, you'll notice a vast change in noise.
