Default Spiderweb shade install help

Just got my spiderweb shade in this week - looks great! Question.....I hear a lot of people saying that they run the top under the hard top ( or soft ). But when I installed mine, I don't see how you can do this. The retainer bunge hooks to the outside of the front latch, so how do you the close the main two latches??

I have searched the forum and can't find a thread with install pics or suggestions, so any of the two would be greatly appreciated.

You can't close the latches .. I just loop the spiderballs in the whole and attach them to the latch when the top is back.

There are 3 latch hooks and 3 bungies on the front. When using the soft top undo the two outside bungies and latch the top. If using a hard top undo the center bungie and latch the top. When taking the top off just reinstall the bungies that were removed when top was put on.

What he said. That's what we do with ours. It's only been off once since we put it on, and that was to clean the mud off of it.
