tell me about it. a couple months after i got my ap2 early last year, i went down to LA to pick up a CF Mugen rep top. the vendor installed one, but I found a small hole in it before I left. I had them take it off, and they didn't have any more in stock. the guy dropped one of the side catcher bolts through the crevice with the brushes and couldn't get it out. it's been driving me crazy rattling back there ever since.

Hey everyone sorry for the late reply. But the top that I purchased is made by karbon haus. Never heard of it. Talked to the rep that I purchased it from and they are new and about to hit the markets. When he dropped off my top he had like 4-5 other tops either carbon fiber or rfp that he was dropping off to a shop in san jose. But yeah! He forgot to bring the rear and front window seals and will be mailing it to me.

So far my hardware kit consists of a rear carbon fiber bracket. Carbon fiber they claim to reduce noise. Rear lexan window and hardtop bottom seal. Anyone have extra front and rear window seals? I really want to install my hardtop soon haha

And yes madmaxblaster will be helping me install the top. We will be careful to not drop any bolts between the panels. Thanks for the heads up!

If ur interested I'll have to look for the shops name.
Do you still have the address of the shop installed you hardtop? I need to install my hardtop too. Please email the address @ guile1668@gmail.com
thank you!
