I have both aftermarket and factory hardtops for my 73 TR-6.
The aftermarket is easy to install (without removing the soft-top) and
is a pleasure during December and January in Norhtern Virginia. The
top looks ok!
The factory top is a pain to install (nearly needs two people), can
easily be damaged (holes and finger prints on headliner from tightly
gripped fingers), requires removal of softtop, but looks fantastic on
car.
Aftermarket top cost $150 and needed no repairs etc.
Factory top (I bought two @) was $400.00 plus repairs, paint and new
headliners (About another $350.00).
Hope this is illuminating?????
PS I like to drive the TR-6 with the top down all year...but now and
then the hardtop is a pleasant change...so ease of installation is
important to me!
Cheers

Hi all,
For TR6 w/ hardtop owners: How hard is it to remove the top? Also what is a
good price on a hard top? I`m curious if its worth having a hardtop on
one of these beasts. Thanks--
