T-tops?
Yeah, just keep the hardtop. T-Tops are great because I have them my self, but if your car didnt come with T-Tops then just keep the hardtop. If I had a hardtop I would keep it as is even after the experience with T-Tops!

I wish my t-top car was a hardtop sometimes. If i had a hardtop i would never chop it up. hardtops are uncommon these days, almost every camaro or firebird i see is a t-top car. very few hardtops. thats why they made windows

i would say go for it and do it yourself or get someone on this forum to do it for you. I have been looking into this for a couple years now. It doesn't seem that hard. And as far as people talking about leaks......**** my HARDTOP LEAKS!!! if it rains hard enough water drips in by my a-pillar on my drivers side door! And no t-top cars do not have extra bracing, and NO HARDTOP CARS ARE NOT RARE. I can guarantee you that. Hell just here in little College Station, Tx. I know of 5 hardtop Camaros off the top of my head. I say do it! I will probably be right behind you!

Unless it has a roll cage from hell to stabilize it it'll never happen.
