Convert top conversion

not sure if this has ever been done but anyway i have an 88 Iroc vert, and need to get my top done, and my frame is very loose as well. makes a racket when i drive. Does anyone make an full electric conversion of some sorts or is it all manual, minus the electric switch in the middle to unlock the back.

any input would be great thanks!

Re: Convert top conversion

I saw a thread somewhere where someone had tips for making the top quieter.. Someone always replies, "Try putting the top down!"

I have a couple spots above the drivers head that creak when going over bumps.. When I stop being lazy I will try and address them.. Mine could be solved with felt washers with a slit cut and put in between the rods and frame that jiggle. Would have to make sure they don't impede the operation as well..
