Sweet !

Isthere a decreased time delaybetween the windows cracking and the roof moving now or does it all move off at the same time?

No delay at all. Once you click the DOWN button once everything starts moving all at once, hands free. By the time the top is down your seat belt is on, your radio is tuned, your volume is up, you're in gear, and you're ready to cruise!

I was just complaing about how long you have to hold the switch today.... my wife thanks you for me pissing away more money on my car.

So if I understand correctly, it is auto up as well? With no problem since you 'set' where it stops?

I just ordered one too. Now maybe I can get my top down almost as fast as my buddy's 911 - hejust pushes one button...nolatches.(but his car still sounds like a Maytag washing machine

) Thanks for the writeup & recommendation, Larmo!

RE: One Touch Convertible Top Review

"7 seconds"? You guys can't leave your finger on the button for 7 additional seconds? How are you going to survive having to "manually" use your hands to unlock and lock the top latches? I'm going to develop and market a wrist brace that will enusre no one tweeks a wrist muscle while operating the top latches. It will be color coded and have the horse logo on it.lol!

It took one hour to install. You save 7 seconds in operating time. That means if you calculate the 7 seconds of operation into the 60 minutes of installation time, you will have to operate the roof a total of 514 times until you "break even". Bitch'in!

What happens if someone accidently push the down button and the top is still latched? Does the latch have an interlock so the motor doesn't try to drive or will it try to to the top down?

And you just wasted 30 seconds flaming that you'll never get back. Congratulations.
