Convertible Top Spring Guide TSB

Herb

Now you know why I just couldn't get into making more

It isn't the cost of the wire.

They are a part that isn't needed on 100% of the convertibles but I think they should be or be very careful when lowering or raising the top. (Stop and adjust material so not to get pinched or rub)

As for cost. I had people say $25 a set. If you can make them to shape in 20-30 min a set probable a good price

If it is taking longer then might have to be $50 a set

But how many guys will spend $50 for them?

I know it cost me $1,100 for my 1st top and 6 months later another $800 to replace the top due to a hole in the passenger sail panel.

Hell at $100 it still would have been a bargain. But the sad part is I gave the guy the wires and he didn't install them said they showed in the top. Well wish I had the TSB then he would have been buying me the top instead of me paying for it.

I made the wires for my car and my top didn't go down but a couple of times without them, stopping to pull fabric away from the tack bow going up and down. Once they were on check several times and fabric was always pushed out away from the tack bow.
