So with 2 people is it still a PITA to put the hardtop on and off? Just curious as I have a top on order.

Not at all. With two people, it's nothing to take off or put on. The biggest problem you'll have is to find a good place to store it. Like you see in my link above. I store mine hanging above the garage door. It doubles as my "one-man" winch and storage device.

My experience of doing it tells me your talking

Please don't attempt to do it on your own, you will most likely damage your car (that is to the guy who started this post)

My experience tells me you shouldn't talk out of your ass.

When I originally installed mine I had to take it off more than once to adjust things and I did it all by myself. So go find another post to troll.

As I said above

with two people it should only be a one minute job putting on and about 30 seconds taking back off. Piece of cake.

It is easy enough with 2 people or a nice hoist system. The problem is keeping from damaging your paint when lowering it. It has to be lined up correctly AND has to be level. With two people it is easy enough.

I have an electric hoist that holds it level and has remote controls, so I can guide it into place. I find it worth the cost to not have to deal with dragging the wife out to help me.
