Well then if their only small steel strips just to hold the plastic roofpanel, why would anyone want a hardtop for structural stifness and handling if the roof is basicaly just plastic meaning if you rolled the car youd be crushed just as if you were in a convertible right?????

Confused isn't the reason hardtop cars are favored over t top cars cause of structural rigidity?

Look at the head liner of a hard top . . it has the shape of a T Top.
A convertible is totally different.
