SmartTop finally ordered... Now Installed.. Dangerously!
OK so I've succumbed and ordered the SmartTop ... FYI http://www.ppcgb.com/ have a Jan sale on, the SmartTop cost me £266 instead of £280 normally (and everywhere else I've looked once you include VAT). Free delivery too.

Re: SmartTop finally ordered...
Fitted mine last weekend, just need weather to change now to get the benefit. I did the same mistake as everyone else by the sounds of it and didn't locate the connector properly the first time.

Might invest in one of these but heard some horror stories of them going wrong and car getting towed away

I've read those stories but 99% are related to microswitch failure of the actual roof and people thinking its a smart top issue... not too concerned, about time I did a few mods...r1andy wrote:Let us know how it goes

A safe remap is next on the cards (safe=not pushing 400bhp out of it, but keeping it around 350bhp to give me some oomph without risking component failure)... BHP UK that did my dyno will be the choice and I have a 'coupon' to have it for £350!

So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with.
