The root cause there is a rough edge on the softtop frame. Sand it down and you'll stop the wear all together

I got bored at work, stuck some little round cut-outs of shrink tubing I made (because it feels soft enough to bend a little but not wear durring rubbing). stuck it to some double sided tape and stuck it to the little wearing areas inside my top. about 4 months now up and down at least twice a day- looks great.

If you search Zoomkat's name, he posted the pics of the sharp edges in the "top replaced at 11,000 miles" thread.

That top photo, with the red ellipse, was where I found a sharp edge.
