They sell kits to do this.

I personally wouldnt try doing this yourself..best bet might be to buy the kit AND pay a reputable bodyshop to do it. You'll need to stiffen up your frame also, as it states on the page. Good luck, and let us know how it goes!

u have to worry about body flex, theft, leaks, storage, and then dont screw up or u could have a pile of junk on your hands, good luck if u do go through with it, but it isnt th ebest idea unless u r dead set on it.

I don't think it'd be worth the effort. Seriously just buy another car with T-tops, and keep them both.

Find a clean 87 GT or something........ I dunno, cause the tops would have to be manufactured, as would the resting area and seal mounting surface. Unless you know a wizard in body customization who works for free, I wouldn't suggest tryin it.

I really wouldn't recommend it either man. It just seems too risky. A sunroof maybe, but a targa I don't know
