Re: T-tops
I too am about to do the conversion. Problem is I was told that it's not a good idea. There is additional reinforcement needed along the center bar. Even though the car is set up for t-tops and all are born t top cars, the ones that left the factory had this additional piece. Was told of people that have done this conversion have cracked t tops going over bumps and cracking widshield when jacking up the car. This kinda freaks me out a bit. Did you have any problems?

NO
I have bad speed bumps in my apartment complex. TO the point if I go over it slowly with 2 people int he car I bottom out. I have hit those things going a good 35-45.
hopped a curb
-I have been to 3 autocrosses
-numerous trips to the track
-jacked my car a good 10 times, one side at a time.
No problems no notices in any structural integrity what so ever.
Guy that helped me with my t-tops had a facotry t-top car we looked over it, several times and didn't notice any differences.
He has done the conversion on another car had no problems or saw any differnces either.
I have heard problems with 3rd gens but not 4th gens.
peopel think hardtop cars are all sorts of extra reinforced compared to the t-top car. Differnces are a few pieces of flimsy metal spot welded, not even that many spot welds. And a composite roof that is flimsier then poster board.
