Someone a few weeks ago posted they cracked their window putting it down because it was too cold. Make sure the plastic is flexible, use a hair dryer if you have to.
70F for top operation is definitely good practice is there known lower limit that has been regularly used by forum members? 70F is darn near tropical for us up here!

I have an old hair dryer in my new garage; I am still avoiding top side engine work and other stuff that requires top movement until I can get heaters installed....which may give me 70 but I doubt it.
