how do the t-top latch sensors work?
Just realized the t-tops both have a sensor that can tell it when they are unlocked/out or locked in.
How's this work and what's it do?
I thought maybe it was a warning system to tell you they weren't locked in so one didn't fly off, but I don't see how it would know the difference between them being not latched and not even in.
It looks hi tech for the time.
