I am updating this question for 2020- These are still a mystery! NOT what they are for, but how, exactly, are they used/placed? Even the jeep dealership had no idea what they were for OR how to use them. Right now, I'm using them on the OPPOSITE side of the foam channel of the storage bag. I figure they are intended to minimize and movement or severe "rubbing" of the panels once they are actually inside the bag.
Work and fit fine on the back half between the hardtop and concrete. I just support the front half with a sturdy box for balance and blanket for protection.

This is how I have been using mine.

IMO they go on the front corner of the bottom lip of the top. Once installed, they protect the edge from getting beat up if u let ur top tilt forward or the actually slide well on PLYWOOD if u need to move the top once it is in the shed. Also protects corners if u use a shopvac to hold the top flat and not tilt it forward.

Freedom top storage bag? The dealer said my Rubicon doesn't come with one. So, I took the bag out of my JK when I traded it in. Probably won't fit, but if I don't get one, neither do they!
I think I've been duped.

They are for sitting the edge of the hard top on if you wanna sit it on the floor...simple answer...they work good for that if that's your requirements.

That's how Quadratec shows them being used - in support of their storage cart.

Why TF doesn't JEEP/FCA show their use?
Awesome find on tgat video!!!!
