Default 2 doors with Safari top (some help for you)

Any of you 2 door guys with the Bestop Safari top having trouble keeping the back end of the top tight.

If you are like me, I tighten the straps but they work loose and start flapping like crazy. The 4 doors dont experience this as much because they have a bar across the back.

Well I found a good solution to get it tight and keep it tight. Tune in if you want the answer. I will post up some pictures later!

Keep you in suspense!

You mean there is a solution other than stuffing a towel above the soundbar?

No, that really is a separate problem that I am also working on. I actually stuff a jacket in mine, which keeps my jacket handy too.

I am more talking about away to keep the back end tight. (No pun intended)
