I'm a guy and I say it's okay to leave the top down if you wish. While I disagree with the "it's just a pile of metal and plastic" comments (really, a car you love is more that that), still you can't live your life in fear of what might happen.
So leave the top down when you feel it's safe and tell your husband to go pound sand. He's bluffing on the d-i-v-o-r-c-e thing!

I had a sebring convertable years ago and I left the top down to go into the mall, when I came back there was a cig butt laying on my drivers seat. It burnt the leather up pretty bad.

I will try them first.
btw - the stealership referred me to an Alarm shop that wanted $750, and they have to use their own product - I cannot bring them my Bipes unit that I purchased through our group buy.
