Hey all, I stumbled upon a 355 auction from 2016 on Bring a Trailer that had a manual convertible top conversion performed. In the description, the owner mentions that "The black convertible top has been professionally converted for full-manual operation. The upper hydraulic lifters and carrier bearings are included with the sale should the new owner want to convert it back to power operation" Has anybody here had a similar "conversion" performed? If so, do you have a recommended shop or maybe high level work instructions that I can describe to my mechanic? The power top is not worth the hassle or stress for me and I would like to convert mine just like this seller, with the ability to re-convert it to stock power operation if desired.

I mean, that may work? Lol. I don't mind wrenching. That video is filmed after the work has been done so it makes it a little harder but I'll definitely keep it in mind.
I’ve known several who have performed this based on the video and it works like a charm. I have on my list to do one weekend too.,. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
