Another question regarding top issues...
Forgive me if this have been asked before but when i look at pictures of tops with rub marks etc.. they are all black. Does anyone with a beige top have similar issues or is this only happening to black tops?

Here was my beige top before GM bought it back at about 3k miles. The dark spots are holes. The rub marks aren't as noticeable at first on the beige tops, by the time I was postive they were rub marks .. too late.. holes.... gm bought it back. The mark at the rear, on the stitching.. the service manager at the dealership accused me of burning it with a cigarette!

Those two spots are rubbing together when the top is down, I did the lotion test to see where mine was rubbing. I put lotion on the spot on the left above the door and lowered it then raised it to see where it was rubbing and just like yours it's rubbing against the thick seam on the edge by the headrest. So now whenever I lower the top I stick a piece of velcro on that spot so it dosn't become a hole. When I raise it I just take it off and save it until the next time.

Too bad, we shouldn't have to - but good idea, especially since it sounds like it will save your top!!
