Supertop NX Twill
Installation Tips
Before you begin installing your new Supertop NX Twill, please read
all the instructions thoroughly.
For a smooth fit:
For easier installation, the top should be installed at a temperature above 72° F.
Below this temperature, the fabric may contract an inch or more, making it
difficult to fit the vehicle.
It is normal for the fabric to contract and wrinkle when stored in the shipping
carton. Within a few days after installation, the fabric will relax and the wrinkles
will disappear.
