Change from manual to power convertible top

[GT BMW E30]

Has any one changed over from manual to a power convertible top? Is it hard and what is needed?

From what I've heard most go the other way because the power tops have more problems than a coked up two headed prostitute.

Don't do this.

I have an '89 manual top and a '91 power top. Both work fine but I have all the parts on hand to convert the '91 to manual when it bites the dust. Don't change to power. They screw up a lot.

power top is also slow... and you have to hold the button forever like a retard. i much preferred my '88 with a manual top. i will convert my '92 to manual once it kicks the bucket.

Yeah, but it's so awesome when they work. I'm never getting rid of mine.
