Default targa top question

Is there a difference between a targa top for a 1989 911 and a 1990. My targa top flipped off and was run over. Need a new one and saw one on ebay for a 1985-1989 which exactly like mine. Where can I find a replacement

How did your targa top "flip off"?

You need a roof with with the later roller type latches (the ones that latch with the windscreen header rail). When you find one, you may well need the side windows to be adjusted to ensure they seal with the roof. Check with the seller if it has rollers.

Do you have the remaining parts?

Contact Dan Petchel (carsinc@comcast.net, 609-298-2277) at Cars, Inc. (http://www.carsincnj.com/) and get the straight skinny.
