Whats the difference?
I am in dire need of a top replacement.
My question is similar to OPs - what type of material... Given the feedback that I've seen - it seems theres a lot of experience with ezon replacement tops.
They have 3 types of Haartz material available:
1. cabriolet grain vinyl (most affordable)
2. stayfast (I believe this is what is billed a OEM)
3. twillfast (I think this is similar to the German canvas - goes by sonnenland - I don't see this being sold on ebay - save for the starfish dude from BKK - who I believe is on this board)
I am looking for feedback to the twillfast material. Does is really provide better acoustic 'enhancements'/dampening?
Just to contribute a little to the thread - in my research, I came across convertibletopguys.com. They're a little pricier than the ebay stuff but they do customize.
In a moment of inspiration, I fired off an email asking...if they can install a transparent section to the top - effectively making it a 'moonroof'.
Before I proceed on - yes, I read the thread about the one guy who asked about putting in a moonroof on his spyder and got hell for it. All I can say is haters can go hate - I don't give a flying fig.
Back on topic - THEY ARE WILLING TO DO IT! For an additional $275 (on top of $50 shipping and $699 and up for the base). I understand that the willingness to do it is different from the ability to actually doing it well - but if for some reason you needed to get your convertible top moonroof freak on - you're welcome internet!
So your thoughts are well appreciated with regards to the first topic (what type of material - using duct tape is getting expensive ^_^) - your opinions on the second - well - I'd say... GET OFF MY LAWN! :lol:
