Tim,

The GAHH doesn't come with a service strap. I can see how having one would be very helpful because the raised, rear part of the top doesn't want to stay up, out of the way very well.

So how does the strap work? Does it just attach to the edge of the rear part that raises with the other end attached to the front of the top? I may try and make one or even purchase one from Robbins if it will work on the GAHH top.

For those considering purchasing a glass retrofit top, this is a down-side to having one (as well as a smaller window). But IMO it isn't enough of a pain to change my decision. I was able to do the work listed above without major issues. When I factor how often I even open my engine compartment versus all of the lowering/raising the top without worries it is an easy decision. Not to mention the electric defroster and a more upscale look of a glass window.
