Oh, gotcha LOL... Trust me, while looking for T-Tops I was looking at 2 convertibles too but it's not in the budget for now. Mind you, this is still my one car - daily driver, so a convertible would be just too much.

Yeah, 2C4 I know ...
Next show for me would be http://www.autoshowaylmer.com/ Sunday August 12, 2007 or The London show... TBA... Depending on where I am LOL. They are most likely on the same weekend and the Aylmer show is too good to miss.

Nice, I have always wanted a T-top car but, I think I would rather find a way to have an electric sunroof on my car cause taking it off manually is such a pain. [This message has been edited by fiero86_gt (edited 06-12-2007).]

I think your wind noise is coming from the lack of P-seals. I don't see where you put them in...I looked at your completer tops but don't see them. Did I miss that step. They make a big difference in wind noise level. Nice job by the way, I just ended up buying a t-top as I didn't want to cut up mine. -Jason
Your supposed to rivet the p-seal thru the front header panel and to the rear two panels. #6 is the p-seal in your pic here:
I just went thru and repbuilt mine last month, what a difference those seals make.[This message has been edited by Fierofreak00 (edited 06-12-2007).]

Very Nice Write-up!
I wish I would have had a nice write up like this when I did mine... All I had to go on was the install manual, which is not as complete as I would like. Yours is the new Gold Standard for T-top installs.
The t-top is the best of both worlds between hardtop and convertible in my opinion.

Thanks Jason, you are right, I'm still waiting on the P-Seals to arrive from fieroparts.com The whistling noise I have is actually when the tops are off, and the flapping sound is the P/S seat belt. BTW - I spoke to Skytime in Carlisle and he is running without the P-Seals for years with no problems
