    soft top not on Parts website anymore

    Hi All,

    Saw the black friday sale and thought I would order the soft-top for my mk4 roadster

    Went to the website and could not find any soft tops at all. Have they deleted it or is it just not in the sale

    The tops have always been excluded from sales. I suspect that it was easier to remove them from the "catalog" than to tell people trying to order them that they aren't included. FFR doesn't stock them anyway, and when I ordered mine, the order was sent from FFR to Rod Tops to fulfill. I had to call them directly to get the zippered rear window option added and paid them (Rod Tops) directly for that option.

    I want to buy a second seat slider. I have one, already. Is the sale limited to only the items on the link?

    The seat track slider is on catalog website: http://www.factoryfiveparts.com/1207...eat-track-kit/

    The e-mail I got says: Save 25% off all items on our parts catalog! The link only takes you to the "New Items" page, but I don't think you are limited to just what's on that link.

    Thanks for the link. I am glad I got to read it. It states, works for the drivers side only. So I guess I will just space the passenger side up to the same level with spacers. Don't know what the drivers side only issue is. I have not gotten to the seat mounting yet.

    I have never understood why they say that they work for the drivers side only? I have them fitted to both sides - not because I needed them to slide, but because the standard mounting does not meet our NZ rules for mounting the seats, and I wanted both sides to mount the same - they work perfectly well on both sides of the car (my drivers side is your passenger side)

    thanks for the reply and info. I was thinking, it might have to do with the handle relation to the tunnel or sides??
    With that information, I will definitely order.

    It looks like they are running out of some things. I ordered bunch of items this morning successfully. I went back tonight to get the Coyote 4 into 1 into 4 headers and even though it was in my shopping cart and I was paying it still ended up telling me there was no more stock when I pressed the purchase button. Bummer!
