Just finished installing a soft Honda mid panel and full Hard roof on my P 1-5 along with 2 piece hard coat windshield. Any of you guys running the same set up? Just curious on the gap between top of mid panel and roof? Driving down the road there is quite a vacuum and the wind somehow swirls around and blows a lot of air into cab area from that gap, concerned that when it gets good and dry, that gap will carry a lot of dust with it? Anybody block that gap with anything in particular that worked well?

Cant believe the air rushing over the rop bar so took advise from above and ordered 3.5 inch foam to fill the gap. Had to trim some on the outsides as the foam was hard but seals up nice and is waterproof for washing inside
