Living in the UK I guess the hard top would be constantly on for about 4 - 5 months. Therefore the hood would be down for about 3 - 4 months.
Will the crease come out the plastic rear window after this period?

I received my hardtop on January 16th (after a 3 month wait!) and had it installed the same day. I took it off on May 2nd.
When the dealer installed it, I made sure the Miata roll was used as well as a felt cover was put on the plastic where the roof folds in to. I also made sure the rear window and canvas roof were clean and the window was cleaned with "BMW Cabrio" cream before the hardtop went on.
Yes, the window was a little creased when the hardtop came of after almost almost 4 months, but the first rays of sun (ie. heat) took care of the wrinkles. Looks perfect now.
