New Top / Crappy TMI cable

Have you done so much to the car today that it just doesn't fit into one section, or are you too damn lazy to split it all up? Either way, this is the section for you.

Because before the new top I got the drippy knee, I adjusted all the windows, and just wanted to make sure that it didn't happen to me again..

Aaaah, the dreaded drippy knee. I thought they may have had a twofold purpose seeing as they stuck up so far. Maybe for straight line stability in those nasty Georgia crosswinds.

I think they would be the cat's meow.
