I did this the first week I owned mine. I sewed them up so there is no slack on the top of the clip. It helps a bit but not a lot. I have also thought about getting another row of velcro sewed on to tighten it even further.
The larger issue is the damn channels for the bottom of the windows. I curse the engineer/designer every time I go to put the side windows back on. WTH!

I don’t have issues with the channels other than the small section on the quarter windows is not even with the long section.

Not sure if it had been mentioned but took the windows out of my wife’s ‘22 bronco and ford changed the top. The clips now mount to little flaps that you can actually grab and clip the clips easily. 👍 mine are tight to the fabric and a pain in the rear on my ‘21

Legit I just had an issue with one of my clips today for my bronco. The side fastener clip flew off when I was taking the top off. Do you know where I can upgrade it?

I do not. I may get some material and add tabs myself but like I said I haven’t been clipping the clips on my ‘21. The Velcro holds well

Two of the side clips are broken on my 2022 softtop. The front clips on both sides are now inop. One popped off the fabric completely and the other broke one of the prongs on the male end. I'm taking it to the dealer on Wednesday for repair.

My 2022 built on 1/20 has the old style clips.

The new style definitely seems like an improvement.

So is this a confirmed change for all soft-tops built going forward? Looks like a good improvement.

Along the lines of the redesigned clips, I think Ford also added painted white arrows on the upper rear corners so you know where to slot the plastic tab. I watched two different soft top videos and they did not have the painted arrows that I have on my 2022. Is this another very minor update?

My ‘21 has the arrows but that doesn’t mean all of them do.
