Not sure if it works with both the 2 and 4 door.

I'm going to start looking at this. Clover Patch says only for two door as the roll bar is too far away. I'm wondering why they can't be attached somehow to the rear bow. I'm tired of branches pulling them off the back.

so this is supposed to stop the annoying flapping sound when the top is up and the windows are out? what's to stop the straps that put tension on the top from flapping and making the same noise?

I run around with my top up and windows out all the time, and the flapping isn't a big deal to me...

Can any one explain how this works, my soft top sail panels are hard and I cant see how you roll them up. I have heard some soft tops the sail panels are not ridged. Is the panels removable or something.

With mine, I run some tight trails and branches keep pulling them out. If I put the top down, it becomes a real problem grabbing my gear out of the Tuffy drawer. Finding some way to tie them up would really take care of the problem. And yes they are really hard. It does seem like they'd be damaged if they were rolled up.

Here's the link to a home-made version. I plan on doing the same next month & will post a full write-up then.
