Jass Performance Adjustable Soft Top Fold Down Retainer (Stainless Steel & Rubber) – Miata/MX5 (NA & NB/MK1 & MK2)
The Jass Performance Soft Top Fold Down Retainer is a simple solution for a common problem: the soft top vinyl folding incorrectly and getting caught between the frame stop/support and the frame stopper. This issue often results in torn vinyl, which is especially frustrating with a freshly replaced soft top. This retainer is frequently needed for MK2 frames installed on MK1s.
