just purchased.

i like that the install video is 37-seconds from start to finish...

update 4/13/2011:
arrived yesterday. installed this morning - took less than 4 minutes including a top up/down test. took longer to remove the plug from the original switch than anything else. feels solid, no worry that it might slip off someday.

all i can say is if you don't have one, get it - excellent cust svc, quick shipping and one of the easiest and cheapest to do mods out there.

Are the 15 and 18 pins modified with the Robo-Top? In watching the installation video it looks as if it is a straight procedure with no modification of any pins.

i simply followed the instructions. as they are written you still have to pull the e-brake. the pin adjustments are for top operational while in motion.

got mine some time ago
It's really one of the things that you don't know you need them until you have them
(I have an upgraded top with a glass rear window btw)

I'm happy that you are enjoying it.



Despite the success of Robo-Top, I have decided to not continue with it due to a lack of time. In other words, Robo-Top units are no longer available.

Unless someone wants to buy a nice side business, that's all folks!

Robo-Top
Do you have any stock left? I've been thinking about this for a while, and just saw this thread for the first time. Actually, out the other night when it started raining, and had to pull off the road to apply the parking brake to raise the top, so.....

Please advise...

Pat,

I am currently in the process of trying to sell the company. If someone buys it, then I will give you their information and your info to them so that you can buy one when it is ready!

I'll keep you posted!

Robo Top
So does that mean that you are out of stock?
