Cheddar Bob Posted November 13, 2020 Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 So for some reason I can't find that thread and when I click on the quoted button it says I'm not allowed to view the content.... Anyhoo. What is a smart top relay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
½cwt Posted November 13, 2020 Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 It allows roof operation without the handbrake on and up to 30 mph (kph?). There is a hack that lets you modify your existing relay but it doesn't have the speed limit detection or the overload detect it you leave it latched but still press the button IIRC.

Araf Posted November 13, 2020 Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 The thread has gone. First post asking for people to send a tenner postage for a 'free' £150 relay? Maybe I should have left it for the gullible to be mugged off? If he sends me the relay, I'll then send him the tenner and give the relay away to someone on here, posting it to them at my expense - I won't hold my breath....

Well I was only interested in what this relay was. Someone quoted my question and I was keen to see the answer 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone quoted my question and I was keen to see the answer 😁 That's fine and no insinuation was being made that you were one of those being taken in. I couldn't believe some of the older members, who seemed to be taken in. As you have a 986, if you do go down the SmartTOP route, there's a couple of types. You need to know you have the correct one when buying secondhand so have a look at the different threads around here, before taking the plunge. IMHO, they're an expensive upgrade but if you resell them when you sell your car, you can get all of your money back. Have a look around for previous threads.

I hope he doesn't mind me saying that he's in secondary retail in London, so you can imagine the caning he has taken this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've already asked the other moderators about this. This site is a joke, when you want to contribute. I know because of the e-mails I field from people asking the question.

Scubaregs Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 Of course it may well be a scam, but how many forums are there he can join to get a return from? Why not just ask a realistic price, take the money and disappear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
