Geez, Pat. You're like the local guy who posted a death notice of his
friend
in the Wa****ngton Post on April 1. People were crying over the friend's 
"death". The
poster paid for another notice to apologize April 2.

Anyway, back to tops. While the Robbins no-zip glass window top I
installed
on her '90 was perfect, the Robbins I later bought for my '97 was cut
wrong
and just didn't fit. Robbins did the right thing and replaced the top
(with
a zipper glass window top however) and offered to pay the installation
fees
(hmm....do you think they would send me the 3 Sierra Nevada Celebration
Ales
it cost me to install it/?). It does bring up the question as to whether I
should recommend others buy the Robbins. I guess if no one has anything
bad
to say about the Duetto, I'd go with their brand next time.

In regards to the after marker glass tops riding higher, I have photos of
the OEM top and the Robbins in the down position here:
