i have a e30 1987 convertible i have been using my standard soft top with the rear seat blower to clear the back screen .. happily...
i have now bought myself a BMW hardtop which fits nicely onto the car and the rear pins go down well into their locating holes..all is well in that matter... the only thing i have noticed that now with the hardtop in when i press the rear demister button the blower doesn't work anymore.. there are two wires on the hardtop located one at each pin... i take it they have to plug into somewhere for the glass window demister to work... where do they go???
(p.s if i take the hardtop off and use the soft top the blower starts to work again).... cheers guys :P :D

You need to do nothing, once the hardtop is located in the pins and locked, the rear blower is disabled and the rear demister will work on the rear screen. :cool:
