I don't regret going with the soft top option but I REALLY hate the fact the top lays on the back when opened.

The top is actually very light and only held on by four bolts.

So, I purchased a set of Quick Release Thumbscrews for a hardtop (6 in a package)

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N5O6JC0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Then I used them for the top (4). - You are still going to want 6 because you are going to want to double up on the washers for the front bolts.

It now takes about 3-4 min to be totally topless.

Here are the photos...

Awesome, I just picked up my soft top JT yesterday, and one of my first mods was finding a quick release for the mullet. Much appreciated!

Ha Ha, just kidding.

Got mine yesterday. Which washers do you double up in the front? Metal, rubber, or both?
