After installing my hardtop, its starting to rattle, especially when the windows are up. any suggestions how to make the rattle stop or is it juss that way....thanks

Nope! No rattles here.
You've got to be a bit more detailed in your querie. Where does it rattle? There's a lot of places that it "could" rattle. What's it sound like? Metal to metal, plastic to metal, plastic to plastic? Know what I mean, Vern?

Mine "pops" when backing out of my driveway. (It's a decline) Driving down uneven road surfaces, it makes a little bit of noise. Let's just say that it's so much quieter with the hardtop, any noise it does make over bumps is quiet compared to the soft top.

passenger side...seems to come from where it hooks on right by the visor.....any suggestions?

my friend who had the hardtop installed it for me....

Check to see if the windshield striker needs tightening (locktite?). And there's a small chance that the latch might need shimming. Also, it has been reported that there could be something loose on the inside of the latch itself.

i suspect the hooks of your softtop...

that's what the problem was for me!

after looking and trying different things....i believe the sound is comming from the hardtop hooks...when i unlach the right side and not pushing it back up, the sound goes away, i tried putting grease but still about the same...any suggestions?

Take it off its August, worry about it later when the season change and its time for the HT.

Exactly what I did. Took it off and I will worry about it when it gets colder down here. You can try adjusting/aligning the HT by taking the side panel cover off and re-adjusting the 3 bolts on each side.
