     Just curious what techniques work for getting the top bows up on a TR3 top 
after the snaps have been snapped. Every fall I find the top has shrunk a 
little more which makes for a bunch of head scratching. My best technique for 
the last couple of years has been to leave the driver's side bottom lift-a-dots 
unsnapped (the first 3 or 4 behind the door). Then I pull up the top bows 
easily on the passenger side. Standing outside the driver's door of the old TR3 
I can grab the lower part of the top bows and pop the driver's side top bows 
into place without too much trouble.
     My technique works for me 100% of the time, even in the cold.
     What are the other methods sidescreen listers are using?
     Just wondering.
