I have a Robbins top on the car now (converted to glass window) but it was slashed recently. Fortunately nothing was taken. Now I'm in the market for another softtop and I wasn't exactly thrilled w/ the way Robbins designed the strap modification for the plastic-to-glass window conversion. What aftermarket tops do you all recommend? Which ones should I stay away from?

Also, is there a company that makes a "zip-out rear window" for the S? For those of you who may not have heard of this kind of window, it doesn't literally zip 'out'. There's a zipper around all but the bottom end so that you can 'fold' the window into the car, allowing more air through the car with the top up. It's a great feature. I had this on a Robbins top in an MGB and loved it.

 

Robbins and EZon and OEM are the only tops I know of. I <3 my EZon

 

Haartz and Electron are a couple of others though they're probably less popular due to their price. Be sure to qualify exactly what you mean when you say "best". Are you looking for best price? Best warranty? Best protection on the usual wear spots? Something else?

Don't overlook all the prior threads on the topic.

 

Funny you should mention prior threads. I did a search and couldn't find any. If you have links to them, please post them. I and others would appreciate it.
