Default T-top question
Can a pre 78 t-top be installed on a 78-82? If so any mods required?

Yes, but you have to change out the halo panel hardware to the older style. The question is why? You should ne able to find a pair of 78-82 tops.

Someone has a set to trade and just wasn't sure if it can be done or what it takes to make the change over or if it is worth the time.

Anyone have any pics of what would need to be changed?
