sawzall is just a brand name reciprocating saw. .

I think it was actually a nickname people gave for it. "Saws ALL" b/c thats what it does

Nah, it's like kleenex. Sawzall (which is by Milwaukee btw) is just the brand that took off. I know this because we have a true Sawzall..

Re: I m gonna do my t top conversion by myself help

okay thanks but thats some thick metal to drill into I tried today till I got tired maybe I have the t top holders positioned wrong thats why I can't close my trunk

[TheGr8Schlotzky]

Re: I m gonna do my t top conversion by myself help

I just used the screw for the holders and a drill. Pushed really hard on the back of the drill and it went in. A pilot hole would have been easier, but it worked for me.

Re: I m gonna do my t top conversion by myself help

I can't wait till its done the craziest thing happened to me yesterday I was cutting some of the silicone stuff from the roof and the knife broke this was scary especially thinking about what could have happened

Re: I m gonna do my t top conversion by myself help

if you can get ahold of one, a surgical scalpel is the best thing evvvvaaa. It cuts through thick plastic like butter and i'll bet it does a nice job on silicone. Plus it's really easy to make nice, clean cuts with it.

Re: I m gonna do my t top conversion by myself help

okay update the roof is off it came off easy I just cut the side pillars also so now I gotta bend the metal for the weatherstripping and do all the minor adjustments
