The top doesn't go down quite as far as stock. We put a new cloth top on the car, and at first it sat slightly highter when down than I liked. Over a year or so of putting the top up and down, it has settled and I can put a stock vinyl cover over it when down, but it is still a tight fit.

I think Frank at Prodigy has modified one of the top brackets to get the top to sit as flat as stock, you will have to ask him about it.

Last but not least, DSE says that some cars have issues and some don't...like I said, mine has ended up working out without any mods.

Good luck,

Matt
