These have been a long time in the making. We cannot think of a better way to complete our E30 convertible trims package than with a fully re-engineered version of these hardtop support plugs. There are many issues with the original plugs: they have an irregular shape that seems to not look good in any position, the original rubber of the plugs degrades after many years in the sun, and they always pop out and get lost - leaving behind an exposed hardtop mounting post. We wanted to fix all of these issues with our offering.
Product Details:
- Quick, spin-in-place install through the use of an embedded stainless steel pin that will not wear fast or rust from the outdoor elements.
- Clean boxy design to eliminate the odd-looking design of the original plugs.
- Intuitive fitment. These only install in one direction, unlike the original plugs.
- Built-in rubber spring to ensure a snug fit on your E30.
- Features a matte and textured finish - which pairs very well with our Hatch and Tonneau Cover trims.
- FITMENT NOTE: Please see the following photo for fitment details. Our hardtop support plugs only fit into the "twist in" style hardtop mounts. Most E30 convertibles have the twist in style of mounts, but some do not.
- Made out of ASA plastic to hold up to high temperatures and increased UV exposure.
