i think they look better on a 5th gen cause its pretty square and it blends with the styling better

Yup. I don't like it either. And since it's not factory I'll bet there's no built-in t-top rack like the 4th gen guys have.

if i recall correctly verts have different safety standards than a hardtop car...which a ttop would be considered a hardtop. im not 100 percent on that though.
