Luxury Cars: Here is a product that makes car owners flip their lids. When the lids in question are soft-top roofs on convertible cars, it turns out there are lots of drivers looking for an easier way. The SmartTop is an aftermarket add-on that makes removing and replacing a car's roof as simple as changing channels on a TV set with a remote control.

Mods4cars, the maker of SmartTop announced that its product now works on all current BMW convertible and roadster models, as the BMW Z4 Roadster and Mini Cooper models are now included. The first unit was developed for the Porsche Boxster in 2002.

It is a simple upgrade that requires the changing out of just one relay box. The SmartTop also works on Alfa Romeo, Audi, Bentley Motors, Ferrari, Ford, Mercedes Benz, Mini, Open (Vauxhall), and Volkswagen.
