When I am taking them with me I put them in the bag that came with the Jeep and strap it to the back of the rear seat like it was designed to do.

Now that I am running the soft top they are sitting on the wood platform that is supporting the hard top from the garage ceiling.

I built a hoist for the hardtop that has a shelf to hold the panels.

I put them in the bag that they came with, and stood them up on the floor, leaning against the wall in the garage. I made a dolly for the hard top, and am thinking of purchasing a hardtop hoist for just over $100. Hardtop takes up too much room.

Too much of a hassle to put them in the bag. I lay one panel down in the back, use the bag as a protection, then but the other on top of it. They are not going anywhere...just trying to keep them from getting scratched.

I do use the bag for long term storage and just throw it on top the hardtop when I hoist it to the ceiling.

If i am using my hard top (later Fall and Winter) I would put them in the back of the Jeep. I don't have a bag to keep them in so i use an old blanket to wrap them up in and protect them.

If im using my soft top (Spring and Summer) I keep them in a safe place in my storage unit.

The Mopar bag. It's simple and protects them.
