Plastic window questions

[Brian in Tucson]

I spent the money and bought a used 03 top with the glass window. Love the glass, hate how hard it is to put in any sort of service position. It was a grand, cloth in good shape, and already framed up.

I know, not what you wanted to know. I suppose if you have any question about whether it's warm enough put on the heat and get the interior hot. Then get out and feel the window, and then go ahead and put the top down.

And it won't hurt the top or plastic window to leave them stowed. I probably wouldn't be real comfortable putting the top up in cold weather.

I havent put my hardtop back on it since i brought it home on the car. Mostly cause i have no help to put it on. My new plan is on the car in the fall through winter. I following NewArts idea of using a kayak hoist to raise it and lower onto the car, and storage over the summer. $30 for the pulley system. Have not gotten it mounted yet, but I am getting quotes to enclose my underground parking spot and including getting that mounted.
