Convertible Top Front Bead - Help!
« on: July 08, 2009 - 01:35:08 PM »
Bought a new top from YrOne for my '70 Vert that came with a "front bead that that apparently goes along the very front.     Installer isn't positive it belongs.   Yr ONe tech wasn't any help.   Installer is nearly done - he's 3 hours from my home (I'm waiting for him) so if anyone knows the answer (should this be installed) - please let me know asap (oh -- I'm sitting outside a hotel using their internet signal and my laptop battery is about dead!).  Thanks!   VT Mopar

Brad    Thanks for the call and the pics.     In talking to some others, I am convinced there is no front "bead" like on some GM cars...... they just shipped it in the package....     Thanks again (hopefully the installer is finished soon - been a long day waiting!    :)    VT Mopar
