    <p>I disagree. The material stretches when hot, contracts when cold.
      I've seen too many people trying unsuccessfully  to properly erect
      a soft top when it gets cool on a trip. Snaps do not quite reach
      and they leave some unattached. Best to install the snaps at about
      the temperature that you would normally consider erecting the top.
      They might be a little loose on a hot summer day if you erect it
      for shade but you should be able to erect it when it gets cold.</p>
