Message	since there would be nothing in the middle to hold it down in that section, and that would create another dilemma regarding on where to place the new mounting points since t-tops and targa tops mount differently. In the long run I think that it would create more problems and have constant wind noise and leaking problems, plus you will loose the targa effect as soon as you take them off. :p I think Nissan made a great hit with the t-top design since it looses less chassis rigidity than a regular targa top and it's easier to store. Thanks! :would it be possible to combine two 2 tops into one targa style top and romove the trim between them? Make for a better continious look IMO...
