Lee was asking about convertibles.

To answer his question, no fox convertibles ever came with rear defroster.

I'm thinking yours is plastic because whoever replaced it before you got it was a cheap bastard.

Brian's right, when you made this statement I was wondering where the switch would be since the power top switch on a vert is where the rear window defrost is on any a hard top car in 87-93.

Interesting to hear that you have owned some Craig because I have never seen a fox vert with an OEM top have glass instead of a vinyl curtain. Hell I can even remember looking at some on our local car lot in the early 90's and none of them had glass

One look at the "adjustable fuel pressure regulator" shows that much.

PUT THE CRACK PIPE DOWN!

How many times had you seen my '91 GT??? You've even driven my car many times.... including when you drove it to Decatur to pick up your Cobra! Did you not realize it had a glass window all those times?

I disagree, I am sure that my '91 had.
I know that I have a couple of older FOX dealer brochures around, I will have to try and dig them out for this.

Didn't your car come with a vinyl curtain originally?
