Jim,

Either move to Arizona or San Diego.  LA of course is out of the question.
Las Vegas isn't bad, but they get some hellacious thunder storms during the
summer months.  The rest of the nine months ain't too bad from what I hear.

Still get the yellowing and the shrinkage, but not near the rust.  Just look
at the inhabitants.  :)

John,
        Now that it installed, how do you keep the top from
srinking and the rear window going yellow( or skuffed from being
folded down)?  I have had 5 different tops and they all srink
to the point that the top no longer keeps rain from entering
at the top of the side windows.
        The sun gets real hot here in Florida and it wipes out
the top in a year or two.
        The hard top simply rusts out around the wing windows
and across the back with the daily drench from either dew or rain.
