Default Rag Top & Hard Top

I love the look of the hardtop but also love the open feeling of the convertible, how many of you guys have both? Where can you get a hard top for a convertible? I have a 2000 C-5 convertible would love to have a hard top also. thanks in advance pics would be helpful.

I don't drive my Vert in bad weather so no hard top needed in my case.

A coupe with the roof panel out is just not the same as a Vert with the top down. Still nice, but not the same.
