I've read almost every post and searched (only found 1 post with 4 replies) ...and seen all the top problems. As mine is a 12 with a brand new top - I think I've also bypassed all the other issues - oil cooling, steering lock, etc.

Now to my questions:

1. I see others saying they don't leave the top down for say, a few days at a time. I have a garage at work and at home...so i could leave it down indefinitely or for days at a time. Is there any proven issue with this?

2. Frequency of top up and down? How often do you guys put it up and down? 1X a day, 2x...?

3. I've 303'd the top - anyone done the interior?

4. If i can leave it down - anyone know of a cover (other than makeshift like a nice thick blanket) to cover the cab while in garage.

I'm not really worried about it - I plan to drive it and enjoy it but at the same time I take meticulous care of my cars.

Ok - that's it for tonight.

1. i'll leave mine down for a few days at a time.
2. Goes up or down whenever I need it up or down. I don't worry about the frequency. My s2000 top went up and down all the time for 6 years and looked new. If I run to the store i'll put it up and down.
3. 303 Fabric Guard I hope. I love 303 protectant on the vinyl and rubber bits but like RaggTopp for the fabric top
4. I haven't seen a specialty made cabin cover for when the top is down.
