I got a new top with the glass window so I couldn't tell you about the one's with a vinyl window. The glass is nice, don't have to worry about the sun destroying the window. It is a smaller window though, and you do have to unlatch and fold your rear seats forward to lower the top.

You just have to unlatch the seats to get the top down(the window hits the top of the seats). Once you have the top down, the rear seats can be latched back into place.

From what I read, you only have to lower the seats until the top forms a memory. After that it should fold down easier by itself.

EZ ON tops has both vinyl and glass. Give this number a call and talk to Randy, he's an expert on convertible tops for our cars.
He work's late, so if he's busy, find out when you can call him later in the day and he is a wealth of information.
He was around when ASC was doing the original convertible conversions on our Camaros.
EZ ON Technical Support 800-345-2886 Randy Shirley.

Had my glass window top on for over a year and I till have to have the rear seat back un;latched to get the top up OR down....
Memory or not...the 'memory' just reminds the top where to fold the canvas just above the window
