Hey guys

I need to replace the passenger side t-top on my car (92 RS, 25th Aniversary). What years are compatible with my car? I hear that replacing the glass would be overly expensive, and it looks like it would be much cheper to just by one from someone who is parting out his car.

Can I go as far back as 89?

Thanks.

 

Aren't they all the same?

 

is it lexan or glass? should be pretty easy to find a glass one for cheap.

 

im not sure but i think all the t tops are the same from 1982-1992 camaro/firebirds but not completely sure

 

I went to the junkyard to find a t-top for my car; forgot to latch the damn thing in heh. I believe I got a 84 firebird top for my car, and im pretty sure 82-92 will fit, be it fire or camaro

 

Thanks guys.

What did it run you? The guys on the boards here are charging around $100-150 for a pair. How much was it at the junk yard?

 

well im not sure but the junk yard near me charges $16.00 for 1 t top at upullrparts but rarly come upon a camaro or firebird with t tops

 

get 1 from the salvage yard.

 

hey 84trigger ill buy your parts car for 2 dolla LOL JK

 

 

 

There are at least three types of t-tops that I can think of offhand (not including glass vs lexan).

There are two different "GM style" or "factory style" t-tops. I don't recall exactly how it breaks down year-wise, but there is some descriptions:

1. Hook style latching mechanism. I believe that these were used in the early thirdgen years.

2. Pin style latching mechanism. I have had both glass and lexan versions of these. The details of the pin mechanism differed between the two versions, but functionally they are the same.

3. "C&C" or "Cars and Concepts" style. These were sort of an aftermarket version and are a slightly different size and shape from the factory ones. They also use a different weatherstripping setup.

For what it is worth, I have a few random tops sitting around that are leftover from my "spontaneously shattering t-top syndrome" days. I have a drivers side hook style top and the original passenger side glass pin style top from my '87. I didn't notice where you are located, but let me know if either one could help you out. If it is feasable, we could work something out.

Mine cost 50$; it was in very good condition. This is for a single one.
