Its all about the straps for sure. There is a bow that folds back when the top is going down. If you keep putting it down like that you WILL put your patches through your top! Keep it up untill you get the new elastic straps!

 

I sure hope so "croftoncustoms"

 

My ez-on top is made out of Haartz Stayfast Cloth, is also known as Canvas. I have the issue that you have with the rear window, but never replaced my straps when I installed the new top. Hope this helps.

Looks like it could go down a inch or two. good luck hope the straps work.

 

Anything would help. Will post pictures after new straps get in.

 

After the straps

In the end, my straps i had on there were dry rotted.... I was able to pull them and brake them easily. The new ones seemed more durable and definitely nice. Id say I am happy, but i doubt i could get the top any lower no matter what i did. Highly recommend

 

did it go down some? how's the view from the rear of the car?
Is it still the same as it was before or did the circled portion of the top sink under?

 

it went down, ill take more pics in a few

sorry about that, its going to about 7 hours before i can get the pics, i was going to take the pics before i left for work this morning but was running late...

 

looks like the straps did it's job if that portion is lower from original photos.
