Default Putting the Top Down

I am not sure if this is the right forum but Ill ask here anyway. I notice that i like to put my top down just about everyday but then sometime in the same day it goes back up.

Am I going to wear this top out or the mechanism fast by doing it that often. I just bought the car a week ago and I am kinda anal about letting anything break and I want to get the most life out of everything in it.

Thanks,

You'll be fine man. Just use it and enjoy! I put mine up/down several times a day.

Relax!

Yep ... mine goes down and up at least twice a day ... on the way to work, and again on the way home. If I get away for lunchtime, it's a third. Only exception is if it's raining on the way to the office, or the occasion my wife rides with me and is being anal about her hair.

Use it and enjoy it. Eventually, in time, your top will get worn and will need to be replaced. The more you use it, the faster it will get worn. Just make sure to take good care of it. Clean it often and be sure to spray on protectant form time to time.
