Cadillac Coupe deVille (H & E), 1986-89
Convertible Top and Convertible Top Parts

ABOUT THESE CADILLAC DEVILLE CONVERTIBLE TOPS

These convertible bodies were made for GM by H & E (Hess & Eisenstadt). Please check for name plate on driver door or trunk lid to verify.

Also note: The tops were made with two slightly different deck seam spacing. Measure across
the fourth top bow from seam to seam. This will be either 48” or 49”/ Order your top accordingly.

Pictured: Original glass window top. Our replacements are made with a plastic rear window.

Original Configuration: This is a classic two part top. The main top and the rear window sectins are integrated upon installation. Included is the molding that staples over the rear window and its chrome tips.

Original Fabrics: Tops were made in Haartz Stayfast Canvas, usually black. Some tops were made in dark blue. More colors (listed) are available in Haartz Pinpoint Vinyl.

Installation: The top installs with stapling and contact cement (no sewing.) Our two part top manual covers all the steps. The original top must be available to transfer measurements.

Warranty: The tops are made by EZ-On and carry their 3 year factory warranty with 18 month labor allowance.

All seams are doubly electronically welded and sewn for added reinforcement. Convertible top fabrics are mildew & mold resistant, and UV treated for color fastness. Plastic windows are DOT rated heavy 40-gauge thick vinyl.

Hydraulic components are stocked.

New Edition!!!
Convertible Top Guys' "How To Remove and Install Classic Two-Part Tops."

This 40-page, extensively illustrated how-to manual walks you through removing and installing any two-part convertible top. The manual applies to almost all American convertibles made before the year 2004, and some foreign cars, too, like Celicas and Saabs. This 8 1/2 x 11 book is designed as both a tutorial for first-time installers and as a step-by-step manual for these convertible tops. Generally, all that is needed and not contained is the "bow height" which is the setting of the rear top frame bow for your convertible. This is available from any top distributor ot can be measured with the old top on the car (as illustrated.)

What skills are required ? (1) The ability to drive staples into bow frame tacking strips (2) The ability to orient fabric sections to the frame and apply with contact cement. (3) A systematic and careful personality ! (There is never any sewing required.)

Note: Very early cars (forties) had wood bows and installers will have to adjust processes for stapling to these bows instead of tacking strips in steel bows as described in manual.

(Tacking strips for most top frames. Some may vary, especially pre-60s cars.)

Note: These usually apply. In certain convertible top frames (especially pre-sixties) the cross sections of the header and rear top bows vary. You can measure the top bow channel cross sections and let us know if yours vary from the usual plastic ones. In that case include your tack strip selection in checkout message.

Important Information

CONVERTIBLE TOP FABRICS
Almost all manufacturers use Haartz fabrics. They may specify "heaviest weight" or "original replacement" in ways that seem reassuring. But they do not really tell the whole story. Please bear in mind that two things dominate, by far, the quality issue: (a) the manufacturing quality control in the factory that makes the top and (b) the care and thoroughness of the installation. There is a trade-off in weight: heavier is better for resisting tear through, but lighter is better for flexibility and abrasion from within that may arise from movement. Almost all our tops are a flexible medium density (36 oz.) fabric. Heavier is not better in most cases. Where it is, because of the top design, we will say so and the top will be made of the heavier vinyl.
Warranties outlined here are only applicable for products installed by a professional trim shop or professional upholstery shop. For Convertible Tops, and related products, the manufacturer will void the warranty for any product that is not professionally installed; manufacturer defects are covered by the warranty in such cases. The manufacturer is not responsible for damage due to improper installation.
