        i think it looks pretty awesome. good luck trying to take the top off your car all by yourself without one of these.

        what the heck is up with all the numbers and the end of your text? is that a copy paste from ebay?

          I've been following Benz owners advice. Take a cardboard box, flatten it, put it between the top and the windshield so it doesn't scratch, lift up the back of the top and rotate it to the ground where your dolly is. Works great and is quick.

            The number is the part number for the 3-point straps:

              you can possibly buy an electric hoist from harbor freights and connect the cable to it. no manual lifting. also harbor freights have mountian bike lifts. maybe you can make one.

                Harbor freight, 8mm lifting eyes, and some metal tubing. Have about $100 wrapped up in this.

                    do you have it mounted to the ski rack holes?

                      Yes, that is where the factory attached the optional lift from

                          that's sweet was looking at harbor freights straps too. Hopefully hoist goes on sale soon
                          I can lift mine off by myself and put on but it's just a pain in the ass and it's more for storage so it doesn't eat up so much garage space.
