Sorry if this is duplicate a couple of shots of the Austrian "soft" door uppers for those who emailed. More detailed photos on FB and in a photobucket account for people to look at.

Posted a video on our FB page of how the Austrian soft door tops function. 17 seconds to remove and reinstall door upper. Posted some more pictures and video in photobucket.
Cheers,
Scott

I know of a lady in Austria selling off the Pinz parts her late father collected.
Amongst them are a dozen or so soft tops.
If you are willing to arrange for the shipment I can get you in contact.

You'll have to weld on the receiving plug on the lower door. This top attaches with no screws or bolts and is clearanced around the handle.
The stabbing rods (I think) are in the same position but substantially shorter, so that extra support is important.

Interesting thread.
Hey Hotzenplotz, my Oman delivered Pinz has the same headlight guards and half/half windscreen but not the latch near the grill you showed.
