Default Targa Top/Sport Roof

I was wondering if anyone had a picture of the mounting system for the targa top in the MkIV. The only targas I am familiar with ate the tops on the Civic del Sol. I was informed by amember here that the MkIV Supra requires a targa wrench (allen wrench and ratchet) to remove as opposed to the two handel system in the del Sol. If anyoune could give me pics of the mounting system for the Supra it would be a great help.

BTW sorry for comparing the supra to a del sol.

Sorry I don't have a good picture, but referencing this one:

...there are three mounting points in the front, and two in the rear. The rear two point directly towards the rear (tightened from the front, towards the back). The front outer two are upwards (tightened from the bottom, upwards). The front center has a 'deadbolt' that is tightened pointing upwards from the bottom, but pushes a locking rod forwards.

In this picture, you can see the hole for the 'deadbolt' that moves forward from the center 'locking' mount.


Pardon my curiosity, but why do you need this info?

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.

I am still in the process of getting the car (read: working my ass off at college to get dean's list again) and just wanted to know everything I can about the car. My only experience with a targa top car is with a del sol like I stated in my first post. I have dealt with hard tops my entire life. I figured if I am going to get the car I should know what I can before hand. I am also curious about pretty much anything so knowing something new it fun for me.
