After the top is back up, be sure to raise the rear windows first. If you raise the front windows first, they may not seal against the rear ones properly.
Back in the 1950s to 1960s, many American convertibles were in production. But now, this is the only such 2-door car available. Furthermore, the combination of an American convertible and a V8 narrows down the options to just the GT Premium. While I'm not a fan of convertibles, I really hope this option remains available for those who want to cruise around the city in style in a brand new car.
i was cross shopping wranglers and mustang convertibles, but i couldn't imagine getting out and going through all that work just to drop the top on the jeep so I ended up going through 2 generations of mustangs until I discovered @mytopus th-cam.com/users/mytopus@@Red5oh
@@Red5oh thanks for the suggestion. I shut the car off and went inside for 1/2 hour - then I went back out to the car and put the windows up and down then back up again. Somehow this worked and the roof closed. I’m not sure this did anything, but the roof is now back to operating - whew!
this frustrates me because even my shitbox opel astra convertible in 2002 could automatically latch and unlatch its roof from the windshield so you could put the roof down and up with just the keyfob from outside the car hahaha.... 22 years later,... mustang still manually latching...
Very informative. I’m renting one for the week. So glad I searched and found this.
This video was made with this exact intention! Glad you found it helpful. Enjoy the ride!
Just rented a convertible your little window tip saved me
I’m glad it was helpful! Enjoy the convertible Stang!

That’s a good point!
Thank you! Just got one as an unexpected upgrade on a rental and was unsure as to how to operate.
Exactly why I made the video for people who get rentals and want to learn more. Glad it was helpful. Enjoy the mustang!

Yeah ford continues to offer convertible despite sale numbers being low. I’m glad they chose to do that
Pretty cool. A roll bar, wheel and tire package, and maybe some lowering springs would make that car a real head turner. 👌
Yes that would look great! Kind wish they’d also offer hard top. I know it will get heavier but mustangs aren’t lightweight to begin with lol
Thanks for the tutorial and window reminder!
Glad was able to help! Enjoy the ride
great, I'm ordering one at the end of the month, this is helpful
You’ll definitely enjoy the ride! Convertibles are fun
Thanks for the instruction! Rented in Maui.
Glad it was helpful. Enjoy the ride!
maybe we’re one generation away from the hardtop droptop, and hopefully with a fully automatic unlatching system.
Yeah that would be great! Not to mention unfortunately one more generation or a refresh away from EV mustang :(
My wife insists that I stop the top and twist the handle back into place before finishing lowering the top. Nice to see that it's not necessary.
Haha! Yes not needed to do that. Enjoy the convertible mustang!
Thanks 😊
You’re welcome! Happy you found the video to be helpful
I used to have one, but wasn't able to drive year-round with the top down so I got a four-wheel drive convertible instead
Yeah jeeps are nice cars. I’d like a bronco or jeep some day

A Benz?
Can you customize it with starlight? It’s possible?
Yes you can put aftermarket starlight but wiring would get tricky due to it being convertible. You’d need someone with proper experience
video starts at 2:41
lol thanks
Too bad they don't offer a folding hardtop. I used the one in my old Mx5 daily.
Yeah I definitely don’t enjoy the look of the soft top when it’s up. I just wish they would change it to hard top
My convertible roof just stopped working 2024 - any resets to get it working again?
I would try unplugging the battery to see if that helps. Otherwise the warranty should cover it I would just call the dealer

Are those the same door openers as a ford ranger?
Probably are lol
Are you gaming with those dashboard screens😂 ridiculous design
Lol that would be nice if they gave option to plug in our consoles
color name ?
Magnetic grey I believe
