Convertible conversion

mysticguy04 · #1 06-02-2004, 02:40 PM

Are there any "how to" information out there on how to convert from a power top convertible to a manual? My 1992 325ic's top does not close right and the latches don't lock. I was advised to convert to manual.
What latches, cables etc are needed and any advise on how to cut the side panel for latch mechanism would be appreciated.

I have a 316 E30 With a manual roof done by TC BAUR you could try them if you can get an address.
