Will an '86 Targa top fit an '82?

Anyone know?

I don't see why it wouldn't. I don't think any changes were made.

Roller latch versus hook latch

You will need to replace the window header if you want to use the later targa top

Usually, an '86 top doesn't even fit an '86.

Hook vs Roller

The top in question from the '86 is the hook type, isn't mine the same on an "82. Looks like I have hooks

86 came with roller latches. If the top have hooks, then it not an 86 top
