yes there are latches that hold the top down tighter to stop the wind noise

I dont know if I just notice it now more because my top is always up (I live in Montreal, its only 6 degress outside, Celcius), or if its always been like this, but on the highway there is excessive wind noise where my roof meets my windshield.

While I am driving if I pull down on the roof from inside to create a better seal it goes away, then I let go and it comes back.

The top is closed all the way and the latches are secured but its still bad, almost as though I can not carry a conversation in my car on the highway with the top up

windows up or down still makes the noise. its more of like a flex noise, when going over bumps or something like it when the car flexes. do you think these latches help for this too?
