There is some velcro adjacent to the cable piping, but we can't see how it would "hang down." We have done plenty of installations here, but have never seen that issue, so we would like to learn more.

I am sure we can take care of the problem, once we understand it better.

Thanks,

I'll try to get some pictures as soon as I can. These straps are used I believe to guide the canvas top inside of the plastic edges. They are right above the side windows and loop over the metal bar. I believe at some point in the raising or lowering of the top that these straps get streched farther than the velcro is able to hold.
On my old top, after reattaching them many times It finaly ripped the velcro off of the strap. With the exception of this, the top is excellent quality. I am half tempted to just cut them off but I dont want the top to go over the outside of the plastic edges instead of the inside.

When people risk their lives, shouldn't it be for something very important?
Well, it better be.
But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?
Lots of people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.
