Re: quick release top (atotalnincompoop)
the other night I had an epiphany at about 2 am, i got up went to my shop and figured it out. I'm just doing some fine tuning now and trying to make the whole thing a little more compact.
it's going to take a little while yet, however i think that i now have a working unit.(although crude at this point)
I'll keep you guys posted greg :cheers:

Re: quick release top (atotalnincompoop)
You know what I think I'd like best? A contraption that bolts into the stock spot (using stock hardware for all I care), that will then accept some normal t-tops (maybe thirdgen units if the shape/size is right). Then my car wouldn't feel like a wet noodle over bumps, and pulling the top(s) off would be much easier. :)

You should check out the Targa Truss from RD, basically what you're looking to accomplish, but T-tops don't fit I don't think.
