Targa Top/Sport Roof
I was wondering if anyone had a picture of the mounting system for the targa top in the MkIV. The only targas I am familiar with ate the tops on the Civic del Sol. I was informed by amember here that the MkIV Supra requires a targa wrench (allen wrench and ratchet) to remove as opposed to the two handel system in the del Sol. If anyoune could give me pics of the mounting system for the Supra it would be a great help.
BTW sorry for comparing the supra to a del sol. |

...there are three mounting points in the front, and two in the rear. The rear two point directly towards the rear (tightened from the front, towards the back). The front outer two are upwards (tightened from the bottom, upwards). The front center has a 'deadbolt' that is tightened pointing upwards from the bottom, but pushes a locking rod forwards. In this picture, you can see the hole for the 'deadbolt' that moves forward from the center 'locking' mount. Pardon my curiosity, but why do you need this info?

I am still in the process of getting the car (read: working my ass off at college to get dean's list again) and just wanted to know everything I can about the car. My only experience with a targa top car is with a del sol like I stated in my first post. I have dealt with hard tops my entire life. I figured if I am going to get the car I should know what I can before hand. I am also curious about pretty much anything so knowing something new it fun for me.
