The price isn't that appealing, but from a form and function perspective ... I like the idea of leaving my targa top at home for semi-local drives and only needing a "near zero" weight temporary top in my trunk in case it rains when I'm parked.
Does anybody have one of these? https://www.stoddard.com/sic-sst-914-tempor...-targa-top.html I know there's a DIY bungee cord and tent cover option someone is selling for cheaper - many have sang its praise. But this appears to be a more modern option, but at 2x the price. Trying to weigh my options. |

Looking at these, and I would call them a solution in search of a problem.
It is too easy to install and remove the factory top in the rear trunk to warrant purchasing one of these. Just my $.02 Clay |

Just my $.02 Clay My local home improvement store has vinyl 5x7' tarps for $0.99, with eyelets in the corners. Dollar store has suction cups with hooks on them. $5 solution to a 'problem' you might have a couple times a year. |
