I did just that on my 100. Rather than using solid steel I used very lightweight 1 x 19 stainless steel cable with fittings that you can purchase at a good marine supply and swedge on with tools the

Lots of interesting feedback from others but the bottom line is that the glass in the channel needs to actually be bonded there by the sealing channel as it was originally. Many years ago I had a '6

Unfortunately we aren't allowed to post pictures on this list or I would put one up. It actually looks quite elegant--similar to the stabilizer bar that 356's and SL's had, though in their case it w

This is a common problem. The rubber that is around the glass is not holding onto the frame and the force of the wind against the inside of the top material is lifting the frame from the glass. We us

This probably is the same configuration I have on my BT7. The shop that did the work told me that he probaby used an XKE rod when I had a problem. I found a SPrite rod that fit so I used it as a repl
