T-top 88ReX 02-01-2005, 01:10 AM
Random question. Just wondering where you guys put your t-tops when you take them out. Do you take them out of the car completely or put them somewhere? Whats the best place to put them so they don't slide around too much? KaotiKCamaro5 02-01-2005, 01:28 AM there are t-top holders in the hatch.. panchoman 02-01-2005, 01:47 AM what you guys have t-tops??!?! luckyyyyyy! KaotiKCamaro5 02-01-2005, 02:04 AM i dont.. but my buddy used to have a 99 WS6.. his had t-top and little plastic holders in the back.. *the car im gonna buy tho has t-tops. cuda_dude 02-01-2005, 02:17 AM sure rub it in kaotic... z28 boy 02-01-2005, 02:22 AM I always said that it aint a camaro if it doesn't have T-Tops Savage Messiah 02-01-2005, 02:54 AM Yes the holders in teh back, or if im lazy just the back seat Autofreefindersguy 02-01-2005, 09:53 AM I love T-Tops in the summer too, but my last Trans Am didn't have them and I loved how solid that car was... Unless you have sub frame connectors & more bracing, a T-Top car just flexes more, alot more...But now that spring is almost here...I would LOVE to be sporting some Sweet ride on a nice sunny day or even warm night with the T-Tops off... Link85x 02-01-2005, 09:53 AM Does that apply for 3rd gen aswell. I haven't... really... looked... Chevyracincamaro 02-01-2005, 11:21 AM i love havin the t-tops off, but theyre a pain when you are trying to run errands or something. everytime i stop to go into the mall or a store i gotta put the tops back on. gets old, but they are gorgeous for cruisin around... Dober89 02-01-2005, 12:02 PM Thirdgens had a leather bag in the back. I use mine once in a while but usually just end up leaving them at home. 88ReX 02-01-2005, 12:38 PM In the back as in the trunk area/right behind the seat or in the back like behind the drivers seat? Pictures would be golden. chevy_chic20041 02-01-2005, 12:46 PM its in the trunk area, there are holders that they slide into.....yeah t-tops are great, especially here in florida :iceslolan Savage Messiah 02-01-2005, 12:47 PM trunk area panchoman 02-01-2005, 03:54 PM damn everyone is talking about how cool and sexy their maros are without the T tops off but all ive seen here is pics with them on so all i got to say is :useless: z28 boy 02-01-2005, 04:10 PM I think i got a pic of my car let me see z28 boy 02-01-2005, 04:52 PM Heres a few pics sroll down to like the middle and u can see my car with out the ttops. and yea third generation had the leather bag for the ttops. http://www.cardomain.com/member_pages/view_page.pl?page_id=591746 cuda_dude 02-01-2005, 04:58 PM z28boy....and i always thought your car was the one in your sig.... panchoman 02-01-2005, 06:52 PM i always thought that was his car too z28 boy 02-01-2005, 08:08 PM HAHAH i tricked u. No i found it on the net and it looked killer so i put it as my sig. I used to have my car there. My car is real plain cause i like the sleeper effect but for the reason that its plain i put this one in my sig. Chevyracincamaro 02-01-2005, 08:20 PM atleast you admit that's not your car... panchoman 02-02-2005, 01:16 AM chevyracingcamaro you should get a sig with your car on it to so we can all see KaotiKCamaro5 02-02-2005, 01:48 AM i agree.. im all about showin off my sixer.. lol Autofreefindersguy 02-02-2005, 10:43 AM Yep, she looks nice, show her off here! Chevyracincamaro 02-02-2005, 12:53 PM posting a pic of my car would be perpetuating the stereotype of what a sig on the camaro forum should be, and i dont conform very well. in reality, i just dont have any recent/good pics of my car on my comp right now. ill see if i can get something going after i go home for the weekend... Savage Messiah 02-02-2005, 01:26 PM Yes, for the record so as to avoid flames, he's stated numerous times that it's not his car Also think bout it... there's an SS in his sig, so why would his nick be z28... DVS LT1 02-02-2005, 01:28 PM When it came time for me to look at F-BOdy's t-tops were the first and foremost requirement. As much as I like convertibles I actually dig the T-op (or vette targa) more just for the piece of mind you've got something over your head if anything ever falls or you flip over... lol But they become a bitch when you fill the back hatch with subs. I've found a pretty decent way to place them on the folded down backseat - there's a small dip between the very back of the folded seat and the suspension hump which the latch side of the tops fit right into. This keeps them from moving forward, problem is one of the tops always has to overlap the other a bit and thats the one that goes flying sideways when you take a quick turn (and scratches the bottom top thank you very much). I ususally lay something down between the two tops for protection and a bit of stability. I've even left them at home a few times in sunny weather but after my last close call with a friggin monsoon they stay onboard all the time. Chevyracincamaro 02-02-2005, 04:20 PM i love targa tops. in my opinion there's nothing cooler. i cant really stand the convertable camaros. i think they are so horribly ugly with the top down, the 4 and a half gens look like sebrings to me with the top down. z28 boy 02-02-2005, 06:17 PM THere i changed so that there wouldn't be any confusion. Genopsyde 02-02-2005, 06:38 PM change it back z28 boy 02-02-2005, 08:04 PM what u don't like my car? Genopsyde 02-02-2005, 08:07 PM i love your car, i just don't like the gritty low quality photo of it. Chevyracincamaro 02-02-2005, 08:34 PM this is the 21st century, get a digital z28 boy 02-02-2005, 08:58 PM Its kinda snowin to get a good pic right now and thats an old pic. txchevy 02-02-2005, 10:38 PM damn everyone is talking about how cool and sexy their maros are without the T tops off but all ive seen here is pics with them on so all i got to say is :useless: i broke one of my t tops by putting them in the bag i hit a pot hole and the nylon strap broke and they smashed together. cost me 150.00 at a junk yard for the left t top. i had no idea they were that expensive to replace. Chevyracincamaro 02-02-2005, 11:02 PM got ya beat... i had been drivin around all day without em. at night i went to put em on, but we were workin on my buddy's car and didnt latch em down right away. i forgot to latch em down later and was tearin through some back roads when the passenger side flew off. i was pissed needless to say... goldz28 02-03-2005, 07:50 AM Under my amp is one side of the holders. The t-tops slide in to the holders and you can lock them in. The t-top are one reason why I don't have my truck filled with speakers. http://img229.exs.cx/img229/7469/image22814jb.th.jpg (http://img229.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img229&image=image22814jb.jpg) hope this helps Pewter'01SS 02-03-2005, 09:01 AM My parents bought a '85 (I think) Firebird, the car was about a year old when the drivers side top just blew off one day. I just remember driving around for a while with a garbage bag duct taped to the roof. Related Links Enter the largest automotive community on the planet! |
