Have read some threads about increasing headroom in a C3 but the two key pieces seem to be lowering the seat (or taking it off the runners) & changing the targa panels but haven't been able to find out how much extra head room is gained by using glass panels as opposed the original panels. Is anyone able to advise this figure? I know it's most likely minimal but I know from first hand experience with my MkII MR2, removing the lining & having just the glass is the difference from a cramped ride & a comfortable ride.

Cheers, Mij (& hello from Australia, the mostly happy owner a '69 C3)

I have the liners off my ttops and I would guess there's at least another 1" room up there (mine is a 72 so it might be different). Another thing you will gain is higher temperatures in the summertime, I have heard and read many people report how much warmer it is having glass ttops.

I just put fiberglass panels on my '81 for the Summer. The glass tops do allow the interior to heat up. I used window tint on them to help but decided to build the fiberglass tops.

I do have the headliners in the fiberglass tops. My head hits when I wear a cap. I would say you will gain about two inches of headroom with glass tops.
