not a good pic but i have had one in my xb for over 2 years now, i like it alot but i would not get another one. the handle is crap so i use an alan wrench to un latch it. the driver side latch is starting to strip & as for leaks i have only had one and that was when i was washing it. the wind noise sucks and it got worse when i put the wind deflector on to help prevent high speed leaks from the front in the rain. i think when the canves startes to look bad i may make a few braces an put some lexan in and seal the hell out of it

Rag tops just seem like a giant pain in the rear. Everyone I know that has one, regrets it.

On top of that, once you figure out you hate it, you're hosed 'cause now you have a big 'ol hole in your roof.

More trouble than they are worth IMO.

Ragtops are good if your friend has one in his ride.
