   I have a Robbins top on my TR6 and had it installed a few years ago by a
Preferred Robbins installer.  The fit is perfect. There is an overlap
between the window and the pillow of at least = from top to bottom and
the car is as weatherproof as a British roadster can be expected to be. Note
that the installation cost me more than the sale price of the Robbins top
but it appears that it was worth it.
