i (and a lot of other members of this forum, i believe) use the "red clip" (pedro sells an orange clip if you prefer) and it works fine. i don't use it if i'm leaving the car for a long time in the open. but if i put the top down and want to head into 7-11 or make a quick 5 minute stop, then it's in there.

essentially presses down on the latch sensor so the car thinks the top is up. so far i've not had any erroneous alarms go off as the result of a leaf or bird flying nearby...
