Today 75, tommorrow 83, top's off, doors come off today for the first time. Sorry...

 

We got about 4" of snow yesterday, but I have the freedom top panels off anyway. Not too bad with a coat, gloves, and hat. And my heated seats.

 

Had the top off for almost a week but got just a bit to much rain today. It really
suck I wanted to keep it off for at least a week. Keep in mine I just moved from CT where there's no way in hell i would be able to take it off. As soon as we get break and get a long stretch of sun and at least 45 degrees the top will be off,and the doors are soon to follow.

 

I have the rear windows off. The doors are coming off as soon as my mirror relocator brackets come. I used to use the little autozone mirrors, but I put on a garvin rack so they wont work anymore. I'd probably have the top down if not or the rack. I have a bikini top on the way though so I can put it up and remove it without tilting the top!

 

Don't worry about that long stretch of sun, it'll start in March and go until July, then the monsoons come for about 6 weeks, then back to sun until November or December. Of course you'll have 115 degrees to deal with during that time.

 

Oh and for those wishing for it, here is a poser shot from a couple weeks ago.

 

Well I hope you don't get that tomorrow night..... We are meant to be flying Linkin Park in for a concert

 

One day I will love somewhere nice and warm. I did have the freedom tops of on Wednesday. Its was +2 in the day and 0 at 6:00pm when I was coming down the highway. That was cold but fun.

 

Sympathy as well from another piece of the planet. I'm 350 Km south of the Equator. By the Kenya coast, every week of the year is either warm or hot.

My hardtop and AC stay on most days because at mid-day the sun pierces pretty much straight vertical through the atmosphere. From mid-morning to mid-afternoon, there's just too much solar radiation to comfortably take the roof panels off -- even if the sky is overcast..

Running fully topless and doorless makes the driving experience so much more fun and nimble. That's how I would ideally want to drive every morning and evening. Downside is the hassle of converting and the likely wear and tear of constantly taking the components on and off. So my usual compromise is to take just the front panels off.

So far no hard top leaks, despite a lot of on/off/on/off abuse... Maybe heat and humidity are good for the seals?

 

this might be a stupid question, up here in ohio is it illegal to drive with the doors off? i though it was for "off road purposes only" otherwise i might give it a shot this spring/summer
