NEW Deck Lid & Soft Top Struts Have Arrived !!

[jeffnhiscars]

They are shipping top, deck lid AND seat shocks in the next day or 2, so next week should be filling orders :)

I need a set too :)

Mark me down for a set as well please

I converted from an auto top to a manual top, but I already purchased touneau cover shocks. Can I buy the sleeves though? I was not aware of the soft top shocks, but I'd be interested once I know where they go, and if I need to make any modifications to install them.

I'm not sure about the mechanical differences between the auto and manual top frames so can't say if yours will accommodate the shocks. They do mount down where the top bolts to the body. The sleeve attaches to the lower pin and the shock slides in to the sleeve. From there the top shock eye attaches directly to the frame.

I will post pics and regrettably I can't sell the sleeves without the shocks since I have just enough and there don't seem to be any (or many) around.

I'm so glad I found this thread! Please! I would also like the top deck lid shocks as soon as available! I'm sure my euro girlfriend would love them! Hahaha

No sarcasm. It's a fairly rare option.

Then my eyes are failing (or my mind) cause I don't see anything for an electric top.

Ive never even seen an electric top but I can smell sarcasm a mile away

that is freakin hilarious. I just replaced mine a couple years ago but will have to keep you in mind for the future!

One definition of a unicorn is that you have to buy it when it's staring at you ;D

Interrestly, these now show as NLA at ecs and several other online vendors so whether my timing was right or I've cornered the market, r3v wins.

Update....I spoke with the factory today. The deck lid shocks are made and they are expecting the materials for the hinge struts any day. I also got confirmation that the balance ofmmy plastic sleeve order has arrived so I will have sleeves for every strut.

I'm waiting on my shipping invoice and have to see what exchange rates have done lately.

Cool, lmk! Been spending a pretty penny on my e30 this winter. And I'm not even upset :)

[jeffnhiscars]

I'm interested in this as well, any update on the cost?
