Hello all,
I was at the local store today, looking for some boat stuff, and happened to notice that they sold these clips. They will hold the pop top hatch dog handles up, when raising and lowering the pop top.
CD sells similar, but the local guy was cheaper once I added shipping.
SBO sell them too, so if you want to buy them online, I'd get them from the guys who host this forum.

"Beckson Clipper Clips"
Part# "CLP- 3/4" works perfectly.
Black, 5/8 in. to 7/8 in. Holding Range
I bought 2 pair and eight #6 x 1/2 stainless screws to hold them on the pop top.
As an added bonus, the CD clips apparently need spacers under the clip for some reason. As you can see from the photo below, these do not. Simply mark the position and screw them into place.
It took me 15 minutes to install 4 of them.
$10 and 15 minutes. That seems likes a good deal to minimize the POS factor.
