smart top

Installed mine last night. I agree, took about 45 min taking my time. Longest part was deciding if & where to run the usb cable for easier future updates, etc.

Installed mine last night. I agree, took about 45 min taking my time. Longest part was deciding if & where to run the usb cable for easier future updates, etc. I ended up running mine into the cabin behind the foldout document holder, but through the square panel at the lower right behind it...you can actually run the cable at the bottom of that and put the panel cover back on it, allowing the cable to sit under the foldout document holder. Very nice to have one touch operation, back out while the top is operating, and use the remote for operating it. Only thing I've noticed so far is that the chirp settings don't seem to do much, as I have mine set to off but the factory chirps still sound with locks/unlocks.

It seems that the "chrips" they refer to are short horn beeps. I left mine on because I like the little chirps when you lock and unlock the doors. Now I get a very short horn beep each time I press the unlock button on the remote. I plan to turn that off soon.

Also, I tried to disable the auto-door lock feature but my doors still locked at 15mph.

This is a bit late, but I figured out the chirp setting. Even though I had the beep/chirp turned off on the module (Function 6 and 7), my car still honked the horn each time I pressed the lock button. So it would honk three times to put the top up, which is obnoxious. Now when I hit the lock button three times, it chirps only on the first press, and does nothing for the second and third press, which is what I wanted. No horn, ever. To do this, before connecting your computer to the car, turn off the honk/chirp on the car (hold the lock and unlock buttons at the same time on the key fob/remote until the car flashes). Then plug the computer in and adjust Function 6 and 7. I have 6 (Chirp sound on lock/unlock) set to #2 (beep lock and unlock) and 7 (chirp duration) set to 1 (short).
