    Has anyone replaced the material we find inside of our targa top of a 348ts?
    Mine has some material that is just plain ugly? Am thinking of having it redone to either match the Interior (bordeaux) or dash (black). Is it easy to remove those two panels? Anyone? Thanks....

    I think they are only glued on. At least that's how they are on my top.

    Re-covering it in a matching leather might look really good actually.

    Thats what I thought that they were only glued on, one thing I have to remember is to match the two small panels further back. Were the courtesy light switch's are.

    Hi, I have replaced mine with the cream leather like on the seats. I have replaced both the ones on the top and behind the top 2 rectangles. Amazing. 2 hr. job. The best interior mod.

    Since this thread is about the top of the 348 Ts, I want to ask you about one thing..
    When you drive your car on bad roads don´t you ear a noise coming from the top?
    From what I know this noise is due to the movements from the body.
    Is there any way to remove or decrease this noise? Any rubber in the right place??

    Thanks for all the info, in regards to the noise, I think we have all had to deal with the noise. I have in the past "lubed" the rubber around the windshield and also in the back where the 2 pins from the top go into. This has helped some of the noise, but I still get the squeaks. In regards to the top, my interior is Bordeaux, with Black dash and door panel (top part). So am wondering what is better, Bordeaux or Black? One question to FMOMEN is how did you do the 2 small pieces that are behind the 2 top rectangles?
