Today was the first time i've ever used my soft-top and vmania windows together. Does anyone elses have a half-inch gap on the drivers side front? I went through a monsoon... I was SOAKED, it was pouring in that crack like crazy.

never had that trouble with mine. Make sure you are using the straps to "tie" them in at the front. If you don't at speed they tend to get pulled away from the top by the wind.

Can't wait to hear about the new secret top. I love my V-mania hardtop but a better soft top would be great on trips so I can go without the top but have something in case it rains.

Same windows, same gap, same place! Biff recommended additional weather stripping in that place. Let me know what you plan to do. The other side is fine. I think the issue is the windshield is not perfectly centered, the pillars that is.

I just put my V-Mania windows and double bubble hard top on two days ago. When we pull the straps tight to the winshield pillar there are NO gaps and the top does not squeak or rattle. I would also like to say that Biff took the time and effort to give me some great customer service when we opened the crate and I did not have the back latches included. Biff express mailed the parts and I was on my way the next day, Thanks Biff.

Maxx and Tomcat, Don't drive in the rain.

I think that the soft top and V-Mania windows will leak through a 1/2" gap on the drivers side, you'll get soaked.

LMAO,
I got baptized in a Monsoon w/o my top! Go figure, all the rain entered through about a 3'X 4' gap stretching from the top of the windshield to the front of the sport bar.

I think the proper term for the rain storm was a "Frog Strangler".
