I have to admit that I like it! Pretty slick. The black wheels on the factory website look even better.

pedro was going to be selling these spyder lids at one point, but not a lot of action recently. looks like the guy making them for him has struck out on his own. oddly you can't order it and install yourself - you have to go to florida to get it installed. one would think that will reduce sales.

I just can't spend 2 1/2 days taking the top down and than back up again. Cool look for those that can deal with the top issues!

Totally agree. Looks like a complete PITA.

idunno. from watching the video i think that the rear window portion could be taken down and stored without pulling the canvas out of the frame - that was 90% of the job from what i saw.
