I have all the parts, but restoration has stalled.
It's a museum piece.

Turbo is gone. Sold it and bought an 08 GPW S2k and gave it to my son when he came home from fighting in Afgahnastan. With the leftovers, I now have a Golf R.

Same setup as you OP...thanks for the idea to store my spare trunk!!

I rest my hardtop the other way though (rotated 180 degrees so it doesn't rest on the weather strip). Also placed more padding all around.
