I just bought one! Thanks!

I also plan to disable the speed and parking brake lockouts in the top relay.

Freedom, at last!

1 or 2 year warranty

Your post says 1 year, and your website says 2 years for the warranty.

I'm saving my pennies :dance:

Good luck with this! If I hadn't bought a SmartTop last summer I would be all over this. The convenience is well worth what you are asking.

Good spot, 2 years is what both should say.

I personally don't like bending pin 18 over when you can simply put tape around the pin and won't do any damage to the relay. My luck if I sell it someone wouldn't want that feature and then pin would snap off when trying to bend it back. I just used some tape and it worked fine. Heard that relays over $100.

Just my 2cents

I installed the Robo-Top last night. Installation took 4 mins - and that included a top down/up test cycle.

Product appears well made and felt sturdy while pushing on the single connection.

The instructions were outstanding with easy to understand steps and clear color photographs.

The one-push button operation is really nice and I plan to do the hand-brake and speed fix tonight so I have full control over the top and can put it up/down with one push of the button on the way in/out of the driveway.

At the end of the day (and about 15 mins of total effort), I will have the same features as the SmartTop at 1/3 of the price.

Highly recommended!
