Hi,

Very Disappointing that the Service Position is eliminated with the Glass-Back Tops - could be a Deal-Breaker for me. I can't quite Fathom a trip to the Auto Upholsterer just to change a MAF Sensor.

Also, a couple of questions which I have not seen brought up - It occurs to me that this piece of Glass must weigh the better part of 5lbs., so how safe is this thing in a collision? Will you have a Glass Missile tear itself loose from the top and shoot forward at you and your Passenger's heads? I mean there were already some Separation Issues with the 1st Gen GAHH Top. Has this thing been Crash-Tested? And, if you have installed a Rear Strut Brace, will it interfere with the Top folding..??

Inquiring Minds want to know...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
