I searched. Saw some discussion but not answers. If I missed anything, bash me but share the link 😀

For those who took delivery, what are you doing to protect your electronics when your Bronco is topless and it's raining? Is the only option to carry your top and put it on, or has anyone come up with a way to mount a tarp to cover the dash or something better?

Might be dense here, but thought the dash was water resistant...

If I want to take the top off mid April and drop it at storage then pick it up late November, I'm imagining I'll need to protect the 12" screen, sync 4, instance panel, etc. I doubt 'water resistant' will hold up to summer wind with serious rain storms but open to being corrected.

I drove about 300 feet from the dealership when I got hit with a sun-shower.

Good news, I can report everything worked even when covered in rain.

This is why I went with a trim level that came with MGV.

Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but have you looked at Broncover (tight fit) or mywetwilly (crossbar storage)?
