^^ Not yet. I just got those two 8mm nuts off that are directly interior (towards the inside) of the tensioning bolts. That's up next. Any words of wisdom (also my top is down, which was causing a lot of problems getting those original 3 allen bolts off - is that going to be an issue with the anchor bolts.

Come to think of it, I actually don't even know where they are

Sorry to hear you are struggling with this. I think I had mine off in about 30 min. Something isn't right.

dhc905

Wow. Finally done, thanks to everyone for their great help.

Lesson #1 it's a lot lot lot easier with the top up to undo all the bolts and see what you have to work with.

Gus

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner out to dinner . But, glad to see you got it off .

It's been 4 weeks since you posted the original photos of the boxes, get the bloody thing fitted already, I can't stand the tension, I want to see how it looks LOL!

Derek911

Lol. I'm just glad he is back and posting. This is like waiting for the next season of a TV show.

Life gets in the way sometimes and I guess the best way is to be patient and wait until you have the time. The hardest thing in life is to prioritize. Fit the hardtop, make a living, keep the family happy.... Decisions decisions.

Thanks for the patience guys, something my wife could learn a little of. Taking the soft top off was much more of a task than anticipated, which was why I was dancing around doing it for so long.

Now that it's off, I'm going to try getting the hard top on in the next few weeks. If I get my new job offer, that schedule will be advanced quite a bit. bear with me.

Also, I will try and make a guide for removal of the soft top now that I'm basically an expert

I ordered mine today. Had to wire the money which was strange. They don't take credit cards. I don't know why but I wired it. Just over 4300.00 or 3300 euros. They said it would take about a week to get to Jacksonville Florida from France. Should I piggyback this tread or start a new one with my step by step. I promise I won't drag it out. My kids are grown and I drink wine, I don't produce it.

BTW there' a 20% discount if you buy by September 30. Basically by tomorrow.

dhc905

Awesome. Yeah I thought it was a little sketchy as well wiring all that money, but it worked out well in the end

Mine is still sitting in my living room. I quit my job, so next week is my put the hard top on my car week.

Gus

Wow!!! - that takes all - I mean you are a real dedicated 964'er.
Quit your job so you can put on your D. Morris top. I'm impressed.

NoSub Dan

When mine comes in next week I'm quitting too. Send me some wine!! I'll toast your top!

Derek911

Dan the man. I'm not sure what happened with the other two guys who ordered the tops. The thread died. What ever you do Dan keep us posted. I am very interested in this.

NoSub Dan

I will definitely keep you posted. It should be in next week. I can't wait!
