tional loads such as roof racks, spare tires, build-

member of the vehicle, and thus cannot properly
carry any additional loads other than environmen-
tal (rain, snow, etc.).
²The soft top does not include any devices to
properly secure any loads on the roof, and any
damage (structural or surface finish) that occurs
due to any additional loading to the top area will
