In the t-top cars, there's 2 screws at the top and you pull it out.

Is it really that easy? My hardtop is a little more difficult. The guy im getting the kit from, said he would have to cut it off, but i knew he was wrong. I will tell him tomorrow, so he doesnt cut them up. How do i get them off on my hardtop. thanks, Michael

Hold on a sec. You are doing a T-Top conversion? There are two ways you can do it. You can do it the way most people do it, by cutting your frame and fixing it up. Or you can cut the roof off of a T-Top car, cut the roof off your car, and then weld on the T-Top cars roof to your body. That is one way to go, but i imagine it might be a little worse for the overall integrity of your car.

I know how to do the conversion. I am leaving my roof intact, just removing the fiberglass shell above doors, cutting the sides and putting them in. I just needed to tell the guy im buying my stuff from how to get them out, since he thought the only way was to cut them out. He is the owner of a body shop who parts out camaros/firebirds. I dont think he knows too much about it, his body shop guys do though. So, I have to talk to them on monday. I have 3 guides on how to do the whole process. Thanks, Michael
