Question:	Looking for a convertible top bmw z3 1997 manual, does this top fit

Question:	Beside staples, adhesive and rivets will I need a new cable or anything for my 2000 z3 manual opening top

Question:	My back window on my 98 Z3 is torn, it looks as if it will zip out, can just the plastic window be replaced
Answer:	It’s used in place of Freedom Panels. Hardtop needs to be installed. I’ve had mine installed for 4 years now. No issues. Excellent and so much easier than removing and storing Freedom Panels.
Question:	Can I take my 1997 z3 through the car wash with this new top
Answer:	No it will not, the part number for the Sunrider for Hardtop for the JL is 52452-35.
