It came out great. I could see a few things that could be better but went to a car show on a rainy day and after looking at other tops realized mine was just as good and in some cases better.

I was a sales manager for a few car dealerships in the 1970 in Vancouver B.C. You could go on any car lot in town and you would find every car had about 10,000 mile per year. There were 2 people that came to the dealerships and spun back the miles as soon as the trades came in. This lasted until...

I used them on both quarters on my 65 Valiant Convertible and my body man commented that they were better than the original material. I have had good service from Laysons and being in Canada that is not always the case getting shipments from the U.S.

Thanks all of you. I have found This site to be very helpful many times. In Canada we have trouble finding some parts. I punched up VC 173 and Amazon say they have one only so will see if they ship it tomorrow. If not I will find a U.S. source.

I did not see it until now but it does have 5x on the arm

That is the problem, I don't know what it came out of. It is points.

I did it last year on my 65 Valiant. It worked out not bad but I did not have the old top. If you can use the old one to match up it would be easier. I have looked at some cars at car shows and they are no better than mine is some cases. If you take your time and follow the instructions you...

Yes I tried it and it did work. Thanks

I ment to sa Thanks I did not try that.

Can anyone tell me what wrench or socket I need to remove the plug on my 65 Valiant convertible?

My 65 was white and is a manual top.

My 65 Canadian Valiant had an off white frame color and a black top. I painted it black and installed a white top. A lot of items in my Valiant were like a U.S. Dart.

Those center ones are the same, The outside ones could be like that. Thanks

I just noticed that the 1965 Canadian Valiant convertable that I restored has never had rear seat belts. I removed some from a 1966 4 door sedan and I see that where the middle belts mount there are holes with plugs in them in my car but I can not find holes for the outside portion of the belts...
