Good morning folks - On Ebay I did espy a hardtop that not only was the correct year, but even the same color as my Spit - this was obviously a sign from on high so I coughed up the cash. The top is in wonderful shape, the glass looks new and all the seals are good except for the seals around the door windows. These are readily available at a modest cost. The top came with all hardware EXCEPT the distance tubes and bolts for the front attach points. Looking at the manual, I see that the bolts look like nothing special, and the distance tubes seem to be nothing more than pipe cut to a certain length. Well, no one has these in stock and, besides, I object to paying $10 for a length of pipe, especially when I need two of them. So, if anyone has their distance tubes and front bolts handy, I would appreciate any detail as to their length. I assume the bolts are fine thread.
