I see what you mean, it's very similar to mine. I'd imagine it can be fixed though. I also noticed in almost every Zeintop picture out there the hatch doesnt look like it sits all the way down as it should. It's something you really have to look close to notice though. I think I can live with it.

I just went out and laid some extra weatherstrip along the front line to work in conjunction with the supplied strip. It looks like it should fix my windnoise, I'll see tomorrow.

Did you know that you can adjust the "pitch" of the windows for inward/outward movement? That apparently fixes with wind issue. There's adjustment bolts underneath the doors. I can scan a copy of the workshop manual page if it would be of use?

I didn't know that, if you could scan it that would be great! I appreciate it.

If I needed a new soft top anyway, and didn't love driving topless so much, I'd want to buy one of these. It definitely looks very good. What does it weigh?

It's interesting that I can get more good top-down weather in CT than he gets in FL!!!!!! But I definitely see his point.

Below answer to your question taken from www.zeintec-usa.com

How much does the Zeintop weigh?

The complete top weighs approx 99 lbs (45 kg), including the glass and insulations/interior lining. Light enough for two people. However, when you take into account the weight reduction with the removal of the rear trunk and soft top lids, the net weight becomes only 65 lbs (29 kg) for the 986 (’97-’04) Boxster.

Too bad it's not available for the 987 yet.

I've had a little email conversation with them, and been watching for a while.
