Has anyone modified there front top bows so that the visiors can stay on with the top up, if you knoch around the brackets will the bows seal when driving at 60 or so?

terry , cut small sections out that line up with the brackets carefully. The top will still seal. god help you with speeds over 55 or 60...even the original cars did not recommend speeds over 55 or so as I recall. Jbo

My rag top works fine with the visors on. It's the hard top that need them removed. What's the problem?

Dan, The problem is that the bows need to be knotched to go on and my question was if I knotch them well they still seal and not damage the top at speeds around 60mph. Did you have to knotch your for the soft top tp fit? Thanks for the help. Terry
