Doing a first time top install and I know one of the items to get done is de-burring what I thought was a pinchweld or roughness near the bars. At first glance I'm not seeing anything obvious. Could someone point out exactly what I'm smoothing out?

 

I've yet to do this job myself, but here's a previous post that may shed some additional info on this:

There may not be any burrs there. I seem to recall this is a 2006 or maybe 2006+ issue. (See note below.) I smoothed mine back in 2016 (see the link in post #2). When I had the roof replaced a few years ago @2poor2mod , the installer, noted "someone's been in here and smoothed this." Was me.

Here's the TSB, it pertains to 2005+, although i have found this on some earlier models as well

When I got my 2009 I read about the issue here and went over the internals smoothing everything I could find. So far no holes or tears.
I was surprised when I saw this. My VIN for 2009 is 9S000086. 10 less than the max.
