Anyone done a convertible? Got one tomorrow,and have not seen it. beer.gif
oldtinter
Yep...pain in the butt kinda. Well, not really, I just spent about 45 minutes figuring out how to get the top down. Flaugh.gif After that...no problemo..
oldtinter
OK...Now I remember the problem...It was something with the rear shelf, it needs to be in the lower position or the top won't move, or something like that. krazy.gif
ninjatinter
So you have to put rear shelf in lower position then top comes down, soyou can get to the quarters, or the BG? Does the rear have a border? or is it like the vette? Thanks for the reply, my friend beer.gif
oldtinter
Yeah..make sure it's in the lower level, probably where it is now, but not so with the one I did....the windows go down with the top, but you can get them back up. Rear has a small border from what I remember, was a couple weeks, and alot of cars ago...Flaugh.gif

In this case it helped me out a ton!(I owe you a brew) beer.gif This guy took out the tray to make it easy for us to get in the back, so if you wouldn't have posted the tip I could just see myself tearin this new rig apart trying to find the little button in the picture here! The tray goes down, and triggers the button. Then the top comes on dizzown.

For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
