So took my hard top off and just put it back on. I have 10 bolts, however only 1 is long and 9 are short. Facebook discussion so far yields
1. All Short
2. 1 long
3. 2 long
4. 3 long

they All seem to thread long enough so I don’t think I’m worried about it. But still funny that people have different combinations

All mine seemed to have been the same length. 🤷‍♀️

Crazy how there is so much variance. The two bolts that go into the top part of the hardtop are longer than the other 8.

I suspect it may be a four door top thing.

I’m a 2 door
So much for that theory. Lol I bought the T handle bolts, so only two of the original bolts at the top of the clam shell will be reused. Currently these same two bolts are being used to hold on the canvas shade top.

Cap rail bolts are M8X24 6?
Others might be M8X33. Pics in cat aren't very good but does show bolt length.
