replacement t-top ?
Does anybody make a targa top other then the clear Astro top?
My T-tops fit like crap and I was thinking about the idea of a one piece painted top. How many of you would be interested in the same thing?

I did, they don't leak very much but the gap between then is every bit of a 1/2" and if I try to move them closer together then the window edge will be to far in. I have seen a lot of others and they are no where near as bad but they all differ some what.
I did have the Astro top once and I really like the extra head room but the seals and the chrome trim were shot. I just think a painted one piece would be nicer then the T-top.

Brian, Mine are the same way as yours as well. I've tried adjusting them to bring them closer together and match the AIM specs but there's just no way they can get any closer. I have about a half inch gap and I've wondered if somewhere down line if maybe they were replaced with ones from a different year making the gap fit a little off. They don't leak, so I live with it.
