Default Finally got the premium soft top on

It was a breeze taking the hard top off. Would have been a quick install of the soft top but I found out I didn't have the four screws to attach the soft top arms to the brackets on the B post. Luckily a local dealership had them in stock so I had to take a quick trip.

I really like the look of the premium fabric and so far the road noise is not much more than when I had the hard top on. Here are some pics I snapped.

Looks very nice! I've seen people say "premium" soft top. Is there a regular one?

Yeah they are different, the premium top is almost like a cloth type fabric while the other type of soft top is vinyl. I just included "premium" in the title so when people search the forum it would come up to see what it looks like.

I have the premium soft top also, I do like it better than the standard. It looks more finished inside since it's all black.
What I've been trying to find out is the best way to clean/protect it. I know about all the products to clean and protect the standard vinyl one, but are there any for this style fabric. I guess my fear since it's so dark that it will fade easily. I'm sure it has uv inhibitors so it's probably not a big deal.

In Canada it's a $300 option over and above the dual top group
