I got a Sunfast top for my TR6 about 8 years ago. It looks and =
fits great when it is up or down. The issue I have with the top is the =
difficulty in getting it up, especially in cool weather. It was =
installed by a Robbins top certified installer. Last year I was having =
my seat repaired by another top and upholstery shop in town. The owner =
said that the issue he has had with Robbins fitment on TR6s was the the =
rear section is too tight and causes the top to be difficult to put up =
if it=E2=80=99s the last bit stiff in cool weather. As I said other than =
that, the quality of the Sunfast top is great. When I called Robbins =
after the initial installation they told me that the top would stretch =
after it had been on month or two - didn=E2=80=99t happen.
Happy holidays!=20
Best,
