I have a 1997 silver hard top. Used it for 2 weeks in 5 years but I am going to keep it.

Any year top will fit on a 1997. The only difference with a 1997 is it has "ears" on the side for mounting the old version of the RTS. When Porsche changed the way the RTS mounted in 1998 the ears we eliminated from the 1998 up tops. If you do not have the old version RTS then any year is good for your 1997. Jeff
