Well, I promised some announcements this week.

This is what I was wanting to announce. Unfortunately the left and right sides aren't ready yet. I've been told next week. I have the jigs set up for these and have started to put together the tops, this is actually a bit more work to get correct than I thought, but after burning up about a dozen pieces I finally got it right.

If you haven't guessed by now. Yes it's the 3 part main targa seal. I've been working on these for quite some time now, since I heard the original tooling was no longer viable. The good news is these will be less expensive! The will also utilize the aluminum clip system so they will not rust, and I've hopefully made them slightly easier to install.

Another thing I did was to extrude the top seal 6 months before the assembly of the seal. This is because rubber will shrink over time, after it has had some time to be 99% cured it is as dimensionally stable as you can get. This is natural rubber like the OEM seal, not a sanaprene or other plastic hybrid. It is more flexible, and I have them cut so you will not have to stretch these to make them fit.

The corner blocks look OEM and have the screw hole to mount them onto the top corner frame.

Product availability - these will be ready to ship in 3 week and will ship in order they are paid for. I'm not taking any money yet, but would like to start a list of those who want one.

These are $175. WIth the assembly time on these I will be able to process about 5 per week ( hopefully a few more).
