The new relay arrived today and took about 30 seconds to install. It works perfectly, and I could not be happier! Thanks, Shehadeh!

It enables one touch opening and closing of the top (don't have to hold the button down) as well as allowing a procedure to automatically put your top in a service position (preferred position for accessing engine from top). The service position is configurable (i.e. There is a procedure to calibrate it to your liking).

AND you can be moving up to 20 MPH and the switch still functions!! (best part)

Don't ask questions. Just get it. It's totally worth it. A few of the features include:

one-touch operation
no need for e-brake to be engaged
can be opened/closed on the move (up to 20 MPH for top safety)
one touch service mode top positioning
completely plug and play
30 second install process

If it's the same price, it's the best $200 you'll spend on your car.

Got mine and plugged in today. So cool pulling into driveway with top coming up and ready to go right away. Worth all the time savings alone. But cool factor is the best part!!!

Thanks Shehadehd!
