    Can a hard window Targa be converted to soft?

    Are there any years of Targa originally delivered with a hard window that can be converted to a soft window configuration?
    Say, just pull the glass out and install the soft window system??

    Before I posted I did a number of searches and found nothing about this exact topic.
    If you can suggest a search term that will get results I would appreciate it.

    There is also a swt group here in this registry. It details a business that will provide you with the parts for the conversion.
