My Heater is excellent! - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

I usually bitch about the HVAC on these C4's...but when I for some reason lost a bolt to my targa top today, I elected to drive home tonight across Houston with it off, rather than leave one of the rear bolts off. I once had a t-top blow off my old camaro and didn't want to repeat that again with the targa.

Outside temp was a perfect 50 degrees and with the heat on full I was toasty warm. Sweet.

So I ordered a new bolt and insulator...Ecklers also shows a retainer, but the other side of my top doesn't have that, just the insulator and bolt. Any idea if that retainer is an add on or if it is something I am missing, which caused me to lose the bolt?

I take this top off like once a year, and this time only because my son was begging. So I'm not really sure whether those bolts are intended to come all the way out or not.
