Can someone please post a picture of where and how the convertible top clips mount around the door opening on the thing ? I have just installed a new top and cannot figure out how to install them without them interfering with the side curtains.

They should simply snap onto the convertible frame once the top is up. Depending on whether the frame is bent, the fit may vary.

Alway unclip before before folding the top down. Otherwise you may stretch or tear the top.
