Anyone Do A T-Top Conversion?

I've kinda been thinking about converting from hard top to t-top. Maybe someone on here has done it locally and could come help or just give some more info about it?

i have seen it done. I think it was on LS-1 Tech. The guy took s sawzall to the roof. i guess it worked out pretty well. it Looked good anyway. lol. dont know how viable it was. You guys are lucky you have that option. We have to put a whole new roof on our cars to get t-tops.

I probly won't do it since you kinda need to fabricate the holes that the top locks into. Rather not have them be messed up too. Just seeing if anyones done it in case I get stupid and want to do it.

it looks very easy to me, If i remember right you dont have to fabricate the mounting holes for the hardare they are already there just bolt the stuff in. I think the fabrication part was just a lip to hold the seal. If i had the parts i wouldnt hesitate to do it on my car.
