I'm curious as to what is better for the soft top. I have been parking recently with the top down, thinking that will minimize wear on the top, but am I damaging the top by leaving it down for days at a time?

 

i park top up, one week i parked topped down, but found out after that it left wrinkles in the top, so i stopped

 

werd. i leave the top up to keep the interior dust free and the top wrinkle free.

 

If I know I'm not going to be driving the car for a few days then I'll put up the top, otherwise it stays down.

 

In summer, the top stays down. In winter the top stays up.

 

I have kept my top down often in the garage, knowing I only take it out when nice, and I'm gonna put the top down anyway. I have the beginning of the common spot tear, so I do this to prolong the life of top, but it's protected with foam pipe insulation now so it seems good to go.

As for wrinkles, that doesn't bother me, because I had my hard top on for over a month, and the wrinkles disappear in a short amount of time once up for a while and in the sun, so that's not a concern.

 

i dont move the top when i park in the garage... if it is up when i come home it stays up, if down it stays down

 

I would be more concerned with mice/rats getting inside your car and chewing your seats! Mice love garages...perfect place for them to "raise a family"

 

Top up because my basement is dusty.

 

Exactly the same for me. My only (irrational) fear would be spiders chillin' in my seat. God forbid one of those jumps out at me while I'm driving...
