Three month update!
The chemical smell went away after a couple weeks.
The small wrinkles, or ripples, are still there. Looks like if I want them gone I'll have to pull the top a little more in the front right corners. However, the ripples are very slight, and it's not worth it to me to pull everything apart to fix it. I can live with this small blemish.
After about two months, I was able to close the top without having to pull it forward. At first, the top would stop movement about 3-5 inches from the closed position. Now, it's an inch or two. Close enough that closing the latch makes the hook engage and pull the top all the way shut.
I'm still very happy with this GAHH top and very happy with my DIY install. Unless I really think about it, I never notice the glass window being "small." The view is more narrow top to bottom, but that's okay. I only really need to see straight out the back, so I don't really notice the limitation. The view left and right is unhindered. Now that the temps have dropped, and I've been finding *ice* on my windows, really love the defroster. Access to the engine bay is only slightly hindered, but I gladly live with it given the benefits of the glass.
