Does anyone know of a shop that can install my carbon fiber t-tops? The lock mechanism is glued to the original glass t-top. I need that removed and the carbon fiber one put in its place. I have called around to a few glass shops, but none of them want to mess with it. Here are a few pics to show you what I need done......

Can you heat it or soak it with a solution to dissolve the glue?

I guess you have to search around for a shop to do that job. Have you try some toyota/mr2 experts, or maybe go to a mr2 forum for better advice? I think they should know more than everyone else. Spend a little more money, because the bad thing about t-tops is that they will leak if they are not install properly(even oem).
