No, the male snap on the top frame is for an elastic strap that is part
of the top.

The male should be on that panel that covers the front side of the fuel
tank area.

There should be 4 male lift-the-dots on the rear floor, these rings go
over those, the the rear carpet has 4 lift-the-dot fasteners that go on
top of them to hold it all down.

Yes, to LTD connectors are 'stacked' when the top is up. Originally
there would have been a vinyl pocket that fit over the end of the
webbing to hold it folded into a couple of thicknesses, but that bit may
be gone.
I'll pmail a few pictures that will hopefully make this all clearer.
