Everytime I go past 60 mph I get a lot of wind buffering from the soft top. When I pull down on the soft top it is eliminated. I tried using Shin-etsu grease to make it seal tighter but no luck.
Has anyone run across this issue before? It's a MY00

I've found new strikers and latches don't really do much to fix it.
Find a good welder to add a little metal on the latch hook where it touches the striker, it works awesome and will last forever
I've done quite a few of these weld jobs myself...

the problem is, the hook on the latch wears a groove in the striker plate over time, and eventually the top isn't pulled as close as it should be. having someone weld a little metal onto the plate will work fine, but new strikers worked for me
