The hard top weight is not an issue. It's very lightweight. It's just a bit bulky for most people to handle by themselves, unassisted.

Especially as there are no replacements and dropping it is gonna be a $3,000 "oops".

If you have another person whom you trust, then there's no reason to go it alone. But if you don't, it's not hard.

I unlatch the top, take off my shoes (like to keep my seats fresh), crouch down with one leg on the drivers seat the other on the passengers, grab both side of the hardtop near the top of where the window meets with my hands, place my head in the center of the liner to stabilize, lift, stand up and walk out of the S lol. Works every time, reverse for install.

Anyone else feel more roll from the hardtop due to the increase in the center of gravity?
I maybe feeling it more since I'm on very soft tires at the moment.
