Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Is it difficult to get the hardtop on? I'm contemplating towards a convertible and need to know if this is a DIY job... I take it something needs to be fastened and locked in place getting the hardtop on...
It's simple but awkward and is a two person job unless you rig up a pulley system. The top inserts into 2 holes on the deck, you lock those down with a special tool from inside the car, and you close the latch above the windshield. Taadaa - new look for your cab. It's a no-brainer.
I love the look of with the hard top on. Pain to put on but only takes a few minutes, but you do need two people and sometimes 3 makes it much faster.
As for the top, mine looks brand new because the pervious owners never took the hard top off. (But the plastic window was replaced 3 1/2 years ago i believe.)
There are probably 15-20 of them listed on eBay right now. Many of them are way overpriced. Shipping can be expensive. You can always drive to get one and mount Tito bring it home. You do need to check if you have the mounting hardware on your car ( it can be added easily if you don't) and which generation of mount is on the top and in your car (again this can be upgraded).
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
