I've decided to go with a hard top, after experiencing what the Engman long kit can do for our cars I am now working on a hard top. I have decided to add a little more steel to the windshield frame. I used 14 gage steel and have significantly strengthened the windshield frame. I think theres enough steel to make a big difference. I need to get my steel flairs and a 944 top and head back to Washington state to get things going again.

Do you have any pics of the cool rear deck hinge setup? Is this something you plan on marketing? Pretty neat deal in the video. Is it working well and keeping rain out of the trunk?
