Are these the lexan t-tops that came on the '90's thirdgens? I thought there was a big problem with flexing and cracking with these t-tops?

Re: plastic t tops?

The correct name is Lexamar tops.

Yes they scratched easy and checked up with age.
Most folks just change them out for glass if they are the GM units.

Used sets are avail. usually reasonable but suffer from cracking,
scratching and checking.
