Hi Bryan,

I could be a jerk and say we never use tops in CA, but I use mine all the time.
Especially when the fog is so thick you can cut it with a knife.  I'm really
interested for the TD.  It makes the tops for Bug-i's look affordable.  Thanks 
for
the web site, I will contact them.

BTW think your car will be ready for our  Spring runs with SWAG?  We may even 
take
one along the coast in the Winter.

Rick
