Exactly what I was thinking. As far as the tornados in Wisconsin, that was unfortunate. They couldn't really enjoy the beautiful weather like we did. It still isn't too bad. We are probably still in the high 49s to low 50s right now. Loving it while it lasts. Global warming for the FTMFW!!!

There was a link but, I don't want to go looking again. I did mine last night. Took about 5 minutes. One screw in the middle top, and two push pins on the sides. Pulled straight toward yourself and not down. Very easy, I didn't even have to put any force into it. Gl.

Since you end up at a steady 3-5 mph while crawling towards the metering light, there really isn't an opportunity to pull the e-brake and sit in one place for 8 seconds (without getting honked at, or cut in front of).
Those of you that live in big cities will understand.

Another situation is when you are in the middle of HEAVY traffic jam trying to get your way into the tunnel, and when all the cab drivers are honking like there is no tomorrow.
This mod is totally needed ...

Cutting wires? Give me a break! Pull the e-brake up ONE click and it will do the same thing as fully engaging it, all it will do is put a light on your dash. You can do it at 50mph if you want to at that point, the brake hasn't even started to engage with one click.
It doesn't need to engage, the sensor simply needs to touch another sensor.

You can go try this out if you like. Unless you bought a used car that had this already done to it....

No clips broken, wire cut, and taped up successfully. MOD completed just fine with no glitches.
Can't beat free!

I found the link for anyone interested.
Use google instead of the search feature by entering "site:s2ki.com convertible top while moving" without the "" and you will find it.
SC Highlander's top down while moving mod.
I believe derived from Modifry's site.
