top tricks

Yep, you are correct! Up to 30mph and it still goes up and down. Also LOVE the trick to put your finger in the hole on the dome light to get the back windows to go up (for my 6 year old in the back). Very cool. Thanks all!

That is not the only thing...you can also raise the backseat windows as well

I've have both (since 2005) and they work well with no issues. I don't recall the price because I think there was a "group deal" going on at the time.

If you put your finger in the dome light where the top latches, you can roll up the rear windows too! For free!

What? You didn't get the 911 with the Swedish wife in the passenger seat option like I did?? However, I think the Smart-top is MUCH easier on the wallet in the long run...
