Looking for some advice on the new style top on my IM conv D with zip out window.
Not sure how to fold it to:
1. keep the back glass from getting warped
2. have it set in at the right height
3. make it easy enough for my lady to put it up and down without to much frustration.
Video would be amazing 
but an explination and maybe a pic or 2 would be much appreciated.
Thanks all

You absolutely need to unzip and drop the window down before collapsing your top. Then put a microfiber tower in between the top assembly and the zippered window. This will keep the window in pristine condition.

Always go to the source. Page 6 has very simple instructions, but follow the advice above re: covering the plastic rear window to keep it from getting scratched, etc.
I had a Convertible D, and don't recall any difficulty in operating the top. Just be sure the fabric does not get caught in the steel frame when lowering it.
Thats good info, but it is vague, I guess I'm looking for more info on how to tuck it in and out to achieve the lowest profile. It does answer where to lay the window which is helpful.and good advise on the towel. I have an 89 IM and just had a new top put on.
Well, sometimes trial and error is the best way to proceed. You will soon learn what works and what doesn't. The Convertible D top has a lot of material and thickness to it, but after a few tries, you will soon develop an approach that keeps you and your lady happy.
Convertible D tops do not have a 'low profile'. They do stick up a lot when down. That's the price you pay for a good, warm, weather proof top. They are a lot like the Karmann Ghia Cabriolet top.
Have a look on the Intermeccanica site, and see how much the top sticks up when lowered.
Just make sure the velcro sides are fully released! I find the bar next to the front winsheield pad needs tp be pulled back well also
Thanks for the advice
