Look what I found in my 1991 Firebird owner's manual. So were they an option?

 

i have always wondered if they ever put those in our f-bodies, but wont do me any good cuz of my subs. oh well.

 

hmm always thought it was a 4th gen only thing

 

I've never seen one, and you would think people would be grabbing them up as an upgrade. Judging from the drawn pictures vs the real pictures next to it, maybe it was an option they didn't get perfected until the 93's and just were hoping it would be available.

sounds right to me

 

Interesting, never heard of them in a 3rd gen...

 

Wow, thats exactly what I thought they should of had!

 

Pretty sure the zipper storage bag was it for t-top 82'-92' f-cars. I'm unaware of any factory storage rack in the rear hatch area for the glass tops in a thirdgen.

 

notice it sais "IF you have the T-top storage slots..."

Some guy made something called "T-Savers" for our car a few years back, but I can't seem to find anyone who has one. It was a vertical locking t-top holder for our cars, like the 4th gens.

 

I was just looking through the Parts & Illustration Catalogs, and the only thing I have found as storage for the T-tops is the T-top bags. It looks as though these retainers may have been an Idea that never made it into full production, but were considered. I did not go through the whole buuk, but I would think there would at least be some sort of similar illustration with the T-tops section and ther is not.

Although I did happen to find out there were 2 versions of the Acrylic T-tops in 1991...

Although I notice you are in Austria, I am not positive on this, but I think there may be a second part to the parts & Illustration catalogs (like an appendix) for the Export cars that were not found in my US version. These catalogs would have other information, such as Right hand drive cars etc... Export cars had different options in some cases, this may be an example of such.

i actually like the good old regular bag, my cousin has slots like that in his 4th gen and there is no space to hold things when the t-tops are off.

 

the same picture is in my 1991 camaro owner's manual also.

 

I actually tried to make a set of those for my 84 TA. Then I noticed that the T-tops dont actually fit in that little cubby in the back. I just cant seem too make it fit. My thingys are just too big for the hole.....

 

Hmm... I posted the same thread about 2 years ago...
