I'm going to be running H&R super sport springs w/ my bilsteins on my 92 vert. Please post pics of your verts with lowering springs preferrably H&R SS, but if not post them anyways. I just want to see what a dropped vert would look like. Lets see em.
Thanks ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

thats why I only bring it out when I know I'm going to drop the top. ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif) . My new top is on pretty tight too, but you still get alot of noise. It's just a given w/ fox verts though, but when the tops is down it looks so sweet.

yea,, i really didnt drop the top too much,, on the freeway, if you had any papers or anything in the back,, it would all fly out! lol,, but its nice to feel the air runnin by you. When i had the top up it would be noisy though,,had to bump the stereo. OH and i hated the fact that you cant recline the seats back,, grrrrrrrr ![[Mad]](mad.gif) .. oh but one thing i liked was the fact that you could just drop the top while driving down the freeway!! ![[Eek!]](eek.gif) , but i did that once and then i got stuck in traffic near concord during the summer, and sun was beating down on me,, i couldnt stand it! and my vert motor took a crap on me.

Got the liner in mine....almost 0 noise. Plus I bump the stereo anyway.... Nice ass vert that black one is. Mine gets out of paint in hopefully a week. I'll post pics if this topic is still around.
Dropping the top on the freeway while going 65+ sounds like a catastrophe wating to happen...

I thought the headliners only came in 93's? where did you get it installed? Does it affect headroom?

Head room is still good with the head liner in the 93 in the picture. Its actually my girlfriends car. I am pretty sure only 93's came with the head liner. Thanks for the compliments on the car!

It rides good, but as you can tell its low, and the springs arent for a convertible so the driveline rubs on the tranny tunnel sometimes, so I need to raise it up somehow. Thinking about putting those springs in my notch and getting convertible lowering springs for it. Are your springs convertible specific?
