to make it look like a finished job, yes you do need the windshield molding (of course ask the dealer for the one for the t-top car)
it has 2 extra rubber strips where the t-tops seat to it .

Could someone tell me if the t-top conversions are like the factory ones? Like do they go all the way to the doors, or do they stop a couple inches from the doors, to keep from cutting around that area?

i plan on doing the conversion in a few weeks...could somebody email me at dwilhelm@torchlake.com and tell me how to do it (in detail please...). one of my friends works for a gm dealer, so i think he can get a plasma cutter to cut off the top, i've heard of people using sawzaw's and it didn't turn out very good.

exactly.

my old v6 no t-tops car made soooo many more noises than my current z28 with t-tops, and my current squeeks are around the rear hatch and the dashboard, not even related to the t-tops.

t-tops kick ***, best feature of my car other than the v8 under the hood. just a word of warning, t-tops off is for speeds under 95-100mph, as soon as you go above that you better have your t-tops ON or bad things can happen.

I don't understand whats the deal with people against T-Tops, my '97 doesn't squeak rattle or leak. T-Tops are awesome. A whole lot better than having a convertible in my opinion too.
I remember an issue of Car Craft magazine the editor wrote how his plans of buying a new 35th Anniversary SS were thrown out the window because its only available in T-tops or Convertible so instead the editor was going to go with a Bullit Mustang.
I felt like B**** Slapping him.

T-Tops are AWESOME!

Way to go man! The conversion was the best appearance mod I can EVER do to my car. I love them! As for the rattles, theyll eventually come. Get some SFC's and youll be alright! Great Job man! I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

EDIT: The best appearance mod I have done would be 98+front clip conversion!
