Has anyone got any pics of e30s fitted with hardtops? How much do these go for and do they fit in the same way as the e36 ones?

Thanks, Ash

Not the greatest pic and I've removed it for the summer now but this is one of the vinyl oem hardtops.

they go for anywhere between £550-1000 depending on condition and what they are covered with
the sprayed ones fetch more..don't know how the e36 ones fit

I used to love my e36 with the hardtop on but they seem to be a lot rarer for the e30s. Mine used to have a handle above the rear view mirror and one in each corner at the back.
The pics look good guys, cheers.

They are rarer but they do pop up for sale, keep an eyeout on eBay, Pistonheads and on here :)

Same handle's as on the E36 as well

how do these fasten down?, do you need to removce the soft top or just collapse it?

2 bolts IIRC, you just collapse the soft top, no need to remove it :)
