I will let him describe it in detail, but basically you remove the t-panel,
torsion bars, and louvers.  Then you pry down the top of the car and drill
out some small holes.  Last you put in screws to hold everything in place.
We did Samuels car and it made a big enough difference.

What exactly is Walter's procedure?  I recently saw a car with, I think,
four small pop-rivets across the top of the rear piece.  They didn't really
look large enough to do anything.

Another owner and I were discussing drilling all the way through the rear
support, through the fiberglass underbody, and install bolts.  I know about
the interference issues with the T-panel and headliner.  Mine isn't lifting
right now, and has tons of resin all over the place, but I am considering
doing this while I am in there.

What do you think?

Greg

I have a non working drivers side window and I believe I need the top of
the t-panel lowered and screwed down per Walters directions.  I am not
sure if those little projects can be done in conjunction with other
projects.
