Best time to remove the hard top is the day you get the car! and time to refit it, well, the day before you trade it in, it gets in the way of spontaneous roof down driving.

Can't be bothered removing them as it lives in the house anyway. At least it keeps the dust off.

After many days spent building the hoist in the garage so I can easily get it on/off... didn't put it on at all this winter - too many crisp bright winter days , beeney hat and scarf was enough as richmc wisely noted. Not sure why I even bought it
