rxgolf,

They sell 2 different top materials. I chose the higher quality material (I think they call it "German Quality"). In my opinion, and the opinion of the installer, it is at least equal to the quality of the OE top.

I think they are in the state of Washington and I'm in NC. I ordered it on a Monday and had it on Wednesday. I was really anxious to get it installed, but my top guy couldn't work me in until the following Monday. If they have your top in-stock (already manufactured) they can get it to you as quickly as you would like to pay.

Post pictures once you get it.

Good luck,

ddb

if you get a chance take a picture from inside looking out of the back.

I'm sure everyone would like to see the view from the narrower window.

Hey Perfectlap,

I just finished cleaning all the road grime off the car from my vacation and have it covered and tucked away until the next adventure. I will take some more pics when I have a chance.

When I first picked it up from having the top installed it was a little strange looking out the smaller rear window. But now, no problem at all. I just returned from vacation in the car (approximately 700 miles) and it is like the window has always been this size. It was a lot harder getting use to the blind spots in general after first buying the car.

If anyone is considering one of these tops, I wouldn't let the smaller rear window affect your decision. If it bothers you too much, more reasons to drop the top! Now you don't have to worry about the plastic cracking , etc. if it is too cold.

Nice looking and unique to boot. Was it very expensive?

Pilot,

It was $1094 including 2nd day shipping and $84 extra for the gray. It looks like the prices are lower already, as expected. My installer charged $520. I probably paid too much by purchasing so early, but I'm really happy and will never look back.
