Default Replace Those Tired Elastic Rear Window Straps

After replacing them twice over the past 4-years, I got tired of the stock elastic rear window straps stretching out. I found a couple heavy duty dog collars with a quick-release and zip-tied the ring that the leash would clip onto to the rear soft-top bow reinforcement. Unzip the rear window to just past the "straps", unclip them from their stored location, and clip them around the tightly rolled up window.
