Looks good bro, but for that much money you should not have any holes at all. Keep us updated!!

What do you do with the hooks when the hard-top is not in use? Do you have to take them out and put them in whenever you decide to use or not use the hard top?

Not sure yet. I guess just set them to the side or let them hang from the holes in the hardtop. I have not had it off yet.

It is a few inched longer where the softtop goes almost strait down at the back window the hard top goes out further past the 3rd breaklight. So it gives a lower profile look.

It definitely looks sleek. Kudos on being the guinea pig with this. Your car looks pretty sweet. I definitely think a lot of people are going to be more likely to pick one of these up after seeing this thread.

I know that I'm heavily considering one now.

Yep like Toyota Celica. But I found mine on ebay from this company. It is a good deal. 82 bucks for the spoiler and they will paint for another 50. It only cost me 132. They did a good job on my paint.

I think that spoiler is throwing the look off a lot. Im still on the fence with this. I need a new top for mine bc I have a pretty big tear by my rear window. I dunno though to buy a new rag top or spend a lil more and get a hard top...

I never really had a like for the convert 350's but the hard top looks clean.
But, is it just me or does to glass contours not match the hardtop?
