Default T-Top Bags

Ok I need a set of T-Top backs since I don't have the use of the storage rack thing in the trunk due to a large audio build. I have not been able to find one damn T-Top bag for our cars. I found some old shitty ones for 2nd gens. But I wanted one big padded leather or nylon bag to hold both the tops. I found a t-top suitcase bag for 68-82 C3 corvettes, but I cannot find dimensions for 68-82 vette t-tops. Does anyone know whether my tops would fit in this or not??? For 100 bucks I don't want to order it and be wrong.

The only other ideas I have are to get it custom made at a sew shop or something of that nature. Or if I wind up doing the rear seat delete trying to fabricate the stock holding rack into one of the holes from the seats. Anybody have any input?

Why not just find a 3rd gen bag? I've seen plenty of 3rd gens with 2 12's in the back filling the trunk. Put grills over the speakers and the t-tops will barely cover about a 1/4 of it. Depending on the year of your car, you could make the child safety teathers work with that bag. Just a thought....

will they fit in a third gen bag?? I found one I liked but it was 160. That's a little much for a damn bag. Heres a picture to give you a better idea of the non-existent hatch/trunk.

Hey man, a girl hit me and totaled out my 3rd gen t-top trans am this past summer, and of the few things I snagged out of it before it was gone was the t-top bag I believe. I'll shoot you a PM about it.

Better than the ghetto towel backseat thing i had going though. I really would love to fab it with the rear seat delete kit. But I won't do that unless I can get a LG Motorsports Harness Bar. Does anyone have the measurements for the t-tops? I'm not in country right now and would like to know...

My 3rd gen bag is approx 28" x 32". Fits the T-Tops fine and has a felt divider in the middle of the bag.
