That Z top looks sharp! Was it hard to install? Do you have to remove it to put the car in “service mode” when working on the engine or can you simply leave latch open?

Installation is pretty easy if you leave the convertible top in. I decided to take it out, wish I hadn't. If you leave the convertible top in you would have to remove the top to get to the engine though.

So tempting... I have an OEM hardtop on mine already but love the look of yours more. Sucks to buy the kit AND paint the new trunk as well. :-/
