It's Here

[Cameron Parsons]

Thanks Leeroy,

The top is very easy to fit and remove. I am away from home right now, but can send pictures of the fitting detail if you want it.

There are tension sprung clips at each front corner that clip onto hooks mounted to the sides of the windscreen. The top front lip of the hardtop is channelled and fits snug, with rubber moulding over the curve of the top of the windscreen.

The rear is held down by a bolt at each corner, just behind the door opening. the bolt passes through a mounting hole, like the ones on the door top for the 'slot in' windows.

There is a thick, soft rubber seal that runs around the back of the top, where it meets the body. Providing both surfaces are clean and free of dirt, marking should be minimal. But that said, a lot of miles will eventually scuff the paint. I am not that fussed about it, as it is a car to use. If you wanted to preserve the paint, you could run a strip of the 3M clear where the rubber touches, and just replace it every now and again. Also something I might consider.

Top is a snug fit with zero rattles even at relatively high speed.

Vision is excellent from the rear wrap around window, and the top is lined inside. Very production in look and feel.

I think they must have put a lot of hours into the shape, as it's just right in balance and gives the car a very cool stance.

Regards
