Very good work! Now you can enjoy your car knowing the mechanism is in great shape and if you have a problem down the road you know exactly where to look!

Over the last five years I've replaced a couple of top/frame assemblies on a couple of 98 base cars along with a new soft top on my car. I've also replace pivot cups, and cables and done the cam timing to sync things back up.

I've come away impressed with how simple and elegant the top mechanics really are. If you don't agree, just compare to a BMW or Mercedes, with their combination of electrics and hydraulics and be thankful all we have is a small motor, a couple cables, gears and switches...
Piece of cake!
