Anyone have Glass t-tops w/large pins to sale

My Lexan t-top took a s**t on me this morning and cracked all the way across from outside to inside about 8 inches.

The ones on eBay are getting a little out of hand with the prices. I just need some descent glass ones at a good price.

The junk yards didn't have any. I spent all day out looking.

Please let me know what youi have and price and a pic would be really nice.

Thanks
Tim

Thanks for the reply

Anyone else closer to FL? Or just on the east coast. Shipping on eBay auctions is usually around $30-$40.

Please let me know before it rains.

Thanks

these guys are great, I live about 15 miles north or them. When i was doing the T56 swap in my GTA they were a huge help. I lost my Drivers t-top while driving one day(don't ask) drove down there and within 15 mins i had a replacement. they have alot of parts in stock, Very straight up honest guys.

Hawks, he is on the east coast. He may not have them on the site, but give him a call and I know for a fact he will help you out. Awesome awesome guy.

BTW. When you buy T-Tops from a junkyard what do they do with the car? Do they just let all the interior get rained on?

The junkyard I go to removes all the t-tops and stores them in a certain part of the yard with other glass and door panels and such. When you walk back out into the area with the cars, all the t-topped cars are sitting there exposed. It makes for snowed-on and rained-on interiors. Not sure if this is a good idea or not.

I have 2 sets of spare t-tops, although I'm not sure what the "large pinned" ones look like...Do you have a pic...or years they came on? I would be glad to get rid of a set...and shipping would not be that much from Alabama....

Thanks

Instead of Searching for LARGE PIN ones. If your local Junk yard has the otheres just buy the tops and the 4 latched off the car and swap em out. Baha bing..... your done.
