Subject: convertible top gap
Body:
okay every one,
I got the low down on the top problem.
I finally calmed down & called Topsonline about my gap
problem.
I spoke to victor ( the guy who sold me the top). I sent him pics of
the famous gap problem.He said: my gap is normal. A brand
new top will do this. Canvas tops do need time to stretch
because they have rubber inlays in-between the matirial.Give it
about 2 to 3 weeks in the blazing sun and it should stretch
out.Infact since I spoke to him about a week ago most of the top
is flush with the trunk and its been about 2 weeks since I had it
on.He also said..If it doesn't stretch out by then,take it to the guy
who installed the top and have him do a bow adjustment!!!(that's
the last tall rail on our tops). adjust it only a 1/4 of an inch
back,but only a little because over time the top will stretch allot!!
He was very convincing of his know hows.I also questioned him
about this mysterious 2 sized tops everyone was talking
about.He knows about the 2 sizes and said that if I had the
wrong top on my car it would actually be to BIG!!!not to small.
He also stated that If Iam not happy with the outcome of my top,
he'll send me a new one at no charge ,even if its 4 or 5 months
from now.
He also new that I was going to post this message up that if
anyone had any questions and I mean any questions! to e-mail
him @ vicsauto@i...
He also has a product coming out in about a month to protect
our tops from getting ruined.
I posted some pics of my pony with the new top its in the my top
folder.One is what it looks like now & one is what its going to
look like in the future.
I hope this info was useful.
peace,
mauro
