You know, if the bows were made in such a way that they would fold upwards, and then lock in to place, after being inserted in to the side hole slots, that would be a vast improvement in the design. You would just insert the bows, fold them down, install the top, crawl in the car and fold the bows back up and they would automatically lock in to place thus making the top snug. I don't think that would be all that hard to design either. I doubt Chas could do it, but Mickmate certainly could.
