michael Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I don't think the type of roof will have any impact on the mechanicals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave17 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 The aero top can leak occasionly and the body is less stiff, other than that there is nothing i can think of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_jekyll Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 the main difference is the roof comes off the aero top , on the hard top it dosent mechanicly they are the same . same parts ect if you want a tt aero you will have to do it yourself or find one that has already been converted as all the rhd were na auto from the factory.

Don't think that's quite right. There are TT Aerotops but they're all auto. I think:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave17 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 (edited) I always used vaseline and some rubber lubricant to sort out the tbar on my mr2, i'm sure it's just the rubber seals that perish over time, most probably replaceable if you get a leaky one. EDIT: Michael is right, don't use vaseline, i was thinking of other things Edited June 16, 2010 by Dave17 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaseline will rot the rubbers, it's petroleum based, better to use a silicone lubricant for rubber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
