Soft top does the same thing lol. The only real way to not have any blind spots is go top down.

That's right - the Top Down mod fixes that! Clean looking car! Sounds like you're going to really enjoy it once you set the spring rates and height!

Welcome and nice purchase!

The OEM Hardtop does have better rear visibility and coupled with convex side mirrors = blind spot problem mostly solved (without going top down). I don't really need to turn my head over my shoulder to check for cars due to the mirrors but I still do due to habit and while looking over the shoulder the OEM hardtop glass provides enough visibility (barely on drivers side) to see cars in the next lane without leaning forward.

The window in my hard top is loose. Makes a big racket at about 70-75 MPH. Glass guy says it is Plexiglass and he doesn't have a satisfactory glue, but he's willing to try what he has.. Best solution is to order a piece of glass if available.. Does anyone know who makes my hard top, and whether they make a glass window to fit?

Under my name and info is a thing labeled Warn Status.. Have I been naughty, and that's my warning? I don't see that on anyone elses posts, but maybe it's only seen by each individual on their post only...

Warn status is nothing. All of us see it under our own name only.
I don't believe those hardtops had the option of a glass window. It shouldn't be too hard to replicate. Just take the plastic counter part to a glass shop.
Good luck!

The actual carpet or just floor mats? Regardless, might check the Member Classifieds section. I have EZMotoring's extended floor mats. Great product, especially for the price!
