my car came with the 1 piece astrotop, which upon inspection, seemed to fit perfect.

... then it rained. good thing i intended to re-do the interior anyway.

so, to be cost efficient I bought the canvas top. worked great, but it didn't look the way i would have liked it to.

... so i bit the bullet and bought the original t-tops made for the car. this was by far my best move.

p.s. - are you sure you threw your astro-top in the water and it wasn't washed there after your car flooded from the piece of crap?

Give the site a look, they cannot be beat. Brent OOps- Sorry about the double submission, I guess it's so good I had to tell you about it twice.
