Decided to go with the GAHH top! Question about defroster.

[Chills]

I had a GAHH top installed last spring after tearing the plastic window during the winter.

It is the best upgrade I've done to the car. I love it.

As for your questions:

I treated the top about a month after buying it; when it was definitely stretched and ready for normal use. I use Raggtop.

I don't know how hard the defrost harness is to install, I haven't done it yet. But looking at the way it goes I don't think it'll be difficult at all.

The visibility out the back is cut in half by the smaller window. But that is a small price to pay for having glass and a defroster, IMO.

Installed my own top about 18 months ago. Took about 6 hours to install and instructions were very easy to understand. Probably only saved about 500 bucks insatlling it myself but if anything goes wrong with it I can fix it myself.

I think I've had my Robbins Top with the retro fit glass for about six months and it still looks and works great. Other than a readjustment a couple weeks after installation I've had no issues or problems. I use RaggTop products to clean and protect it.
