As of today I'm hardtopped, now I can look forward to a sh*t load of condensation on the underside of roof..certainly wakes you up on a cold morning :shock:

close your vents at night and make sure there is no dampness under the seats.

+ clear out your drains

(it was most likely the rain rail that was the issue tho.. )

Maybe I won't have the problem this year as the rail was succesfully replaced at the last tech day at Ivans'

Putting mine up this week when I get a fine day :cry:

Not having one myself, do the hardtops decrease wind noise at speed ?
And do they seal okay ?
