Hi Doug,
	If it=E2=80=99s a Robbins top be really sure the top still fits =
before going to all the trouble to install it. I put a Robbins Sunfast =
top on my TR6 years ago, and although, it looks great when up or down, =
it is a lot of work to puit up under cool conditions.  About a year ago =
I spoke to a well respected installer who told me that the rear window =
section of the  Robbins tops are short and thus Robbins tops are always =
a  tight fit. I found that my previous vinyl top  was difficult to get =
up unless is was either very warm - it was also a Robbins top. In spite =
of what Robbins said when I contacted them, their tops don=E2=80=99t =
stretch after they have been installed and left in the sun=E2=80=A6
	I=E2=80=99d be curious to know if anyone has had better luck =
with their top installations.
	Best,
	Bob

Robert, although I wasn't aware it was the rear window area that was short,
mine (self installed) takes a bit of effort to get up on all but the
hottest of days.  My first top install, I put it on in the sun.  It looks
very good, but is tight.

If I had this to do over I would probably install on a warm day out of the
sun.

I always store for the my winter or extended periods of time with the top
up, my theory is it can't shrink with the top up, or at least is less
likely to.
