Almost done!Here's a pic with them lit up & signal too.The Brake lamps kind of distorts the color a bit, but they are brighter than before.I will try to get better pics in the day light.I did manage to buff my 3rd brk light though.You can see the checkerbaording better than a expected it to be.So far Im very pleased with the progess.

whats up with your t-tops? in the first pic you posted they were slightly up in the back, did you do something custom with them to make them latch up in the back if so how did you do that?

It does look like it was a PITB. But, it is unique and more importantly, it looks good too.
I never would have thought of that, or that it would look good if I had.
Props again!
My car has C&C T-tops too, but they aren't the sunroof type that I've been looking for, wanna trade?

.Im actually looking for a spare set myself.A while back i found a set of C&C t-tops at the J.K. good shape too, but they had the locks & i didnt have the time to take them apart.They also didnt have the latch's that i need(one of mine is broken).if you wanna change yours you'll need more than the t-tops(center bar,2 metal tabs(on the frame) & the palstic trim bezels. Doh, I didn't know it was more than just the tops, but no big deal.
After I posted that I remembered that my Camaro is still in storage 1500 miles away, for now. It's kind of hard to trade when they're there, heh.
I'm still keeping my eyes open in JY's.
