Hello,
I build a Top Module for the Roadster years ago with through hole components.It looks like this:

Top Module through hole

I had many questions if I wanted to do a new series of them.
Because the whole soldering of the components causes a lot of work and is not so professional I had the new edition made in SMD construction. This looks like this:


SMD-Version

And with housing like this:

With housing

What can the module do?
Open and close the top with a short press of the button.
Stop the opening/closing process by pressing the button again.
Automatic raising up of the windows after the top has been opened/closed completely.
Open/close the top up to a speed of 30mph (at your own risk you are responsible for not damaging the top. If you still have a headwind the wind speed will increase accordingly).
Here is a video where you can see the function:


And here a installation video:


Here the installation and operation manual:

Brilliant!
Nice work.

 

Thank you, to find out how I can get the Top to work at speeds over 4mph was really hard...

 

Now if someone can only figure out a way to bypass those pesky top sensors that break.

 

That's easy, just connect the 2 leads together on both sensors.
WARNING !!!!!
If you do this, :
1. Do NOT press the down switch with the header latched.
2. Do NOT press the down switch with the divider in the stowed position and something in the trunk higher than it would be in the top down position.
