Sorry. I forgot to mention that I do have the full hard doors....not
the half doors. It seems to be the rear side window on the passenger
side that flaps the most. The bar that you're talking about
bending....is that the one that makes the roof of the soft top angled
so that the roof slants downward towards the front and in the back?

No, apples and oranges.
I was talking about the soft doors flapping.
I always run with the fan on because it is a soft top and I don't like
exhaust smell. This inflates my soft top nicely so it doesn't flap.
