Hi , this my first post to the group. I just finished the instalation of an aftermarket top with a heated glass back window. fit is perfect, defroster grids are small and black. Total time to install was less than 5 hours and no alterations to frame. top folds just right, but there is slightly less room in the service postion. I took extra care to clean and lube all pivot points and seals. I still need to work up a wire harness to hook up the defroster. FYI: I work in the automotive repair field so my labor times are accurate as is my assesment of the opperation of the top. The window is smaller by 5 inches in height and about 4 inches narrower across the width. but visability from the seat is as good as before, maybe better without the distortion even new plastic has. the top was made by a southern California company.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
