Hardware-Update: SmartTOP Top Control for Bentley Continental GTC Convertible

Leave a comment

Mods4cars retrofit SmartTOP controller for the Bentley Continental GTC Convertible will be delivered in a new housing. The SmartTOP roof module allows, among other things, one-touch operation of the convertible top during slow driving and operation of the roof via the existing vehicle keys.

Las Vegas, NV (USA), November 2nd, 2016 — The company Mods4cars completely redesigned the housing of its SmartTOP Roof Modules. The additional top control for the Bentley Continental GTC has also received the exclusive design. The new housing is not only visually a nice change, but also provides assistance when installing the retrofit comfort control.

Two integrated LEDs indicate the correct installation of the SmartTOP module. Its narrower shape allows the SmartTOP control to be easily built into the vehicle. In addition, a contribution to the environment is made. For the new housing less plastic is used and screws are entirely omitted.

Since 2002, the company Mods4cars offers its smart folding top modules. Simplifying the use of convertibles with clever additional features. They allow opening and closing of the top while driving at a speed of up to 40 km/h. Thanks to one-touch operation, the top button must only be touched once and the roof movement is automatically executed.

In addition, the roof can be operated via the existing vehicle keys from afar. Through a combination of keys on the remote control, the soft top can be opened and closed. With that, you can select whether the windows should be retracted after opening the roof or remain down. This feature requires no change to the vehicle remote control.

Besides these two main features, each SmartTOP module has additional functions that can be programmed individually. It is thereby also possible for the windows to be opened and closed separately via the vehicle remote control from a distance. While the top is in motion the hazard warning lights can also be activated.

Starting and stopping the engine does not interrupt the current top motion. The module can be, if necessary, completely disabled. The built in USB port allows programming of the roof control. Moreover, software updates can be loaded, which the company Mods4cars provides free of charge to their customers.

SmartTOP modules are available for the following vehicles: Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Chevrolet, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volvo and VW. The SmartTOP for the Bentley Continental GTC Convertible is available for 339,00 Euro + tax.

SmartTOP Additional Top Control for the Chevrolet Corvette C7 is Now Available

Leave a comment

As of now the SmartTOP control from Mods4cars is also available for the Chevrolet Corvette C7. The retrofit convertible module enables the operation of the convertible top while driving with one touch function. In addition, the roof can be opened and closed from afar via the cars key.

Las Vegas, NV (USA), October 17th, 2016 — The manufacturer Mods4cars announces that the retrofit SmartTOP control for the Chevrolet Corvette C7 is in stock. “We have listened to the multiple customer inquiries and are happy to now offer a comfort smart solution for the Corvette C7,” says PR spokesman Sven Tornow.

The roof module made by Mods4cars is retrofitted into the vehicle and lightens the convertibles day to day with clever additional features. The SmartTOP enables one-touch operation of the convertible top. The interior button must therefore not be held down throughout the entire top motion movement. Instead a quick tap is enough for the roof to be opened or closed automatically.

Furthermore, the operation of the roof from a distance is made possible via the original vehicle keys. Top motion can then be initiated with a combination of keys on the remote control. The corvette driver can then already open their top when moving toward the vehicle. Conversely, it is also possible to close the roof from a distance, e.g. if it suddenly begins to rain. No changes to the original vehicle key is required.

Like every SmartTOP, the comfort module also offers useful additional functions for the Chevrolet Corvette C7. “A very special feature is the automatic raising of the window after closing the top,” explains PR spokesman, Sven Tornow. “It is no longer necessary to manually put up the window after the top motion movement. This saves time.”

In addition, the windows can be opened and closed via the remote control. Starting or stopping the engine does not interrupt the current top motion. The module can be deactivated at any time. And all functions of the SmartTOP roof module can be programmed to your personal wishes.

A mounted USB port on the SmartTOP module allows connection to a home PC/Mac. Thereby, the roof module can be easily configured. Moreover, uploading of software updates is made possible, which Mods4cars offers free of charge.

The included plug-and-play cable set and ease of access ensure for an easy installation. With a simple interlock, the connection between SmartTOP and vehicle electronics is established. No lines need to be cut, which is why a traceless dismantling is possible at any time.

The comfort control for the Chevrolet Corvette C7 is available for 339,00 Euro + tax.

Mods4cars offers SmartTOP comfort modules for the following vehicle brands: Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Chevrolet, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volkswagen and Volvo.

Leave a comment

The SmartTOP convertible top controllers offered by aftermarket electronics specialist Mods4cars come equipped with a standard USB port. This allows for quick and easy configuration of the module via PC or laptop as well as flashing firmware updates available online free of charge.

Las Vegas, NV (USA), Thursday – October 06, 2011 — The SmartTOP convertible top control modules available from Mods4cars come equipped with a standard USB port. In conjunction with the “m4cconnect” software available on the company’s website, this port makes initial configuration of all user parameters as well as updating the product firmware a simple and easy affair.

All product kits come bundled with a USB cable which can be left installed with the module in the car, so a laptop can be used at any time to change configuration parameters or install an update without the need to remove the module.

Each module can be conveniently programmed with a PC or laptop using a small and freely available software program. As an example some modules allow selecting if the windows should roll up after a top open command or if the horn or siren should emit a short beep upon locking or unlocking the car. Should additional functions and features become available at a later point in time, all customers get to benefit from them after running the simple firmware update. Early adopters of new modules can always rest assured that their product will not become obsolete.

“We generally offer all firmware updates free of charge and with no restrictions, for the life of the product.” says PR-Manager Sven Tornow. “Once you purchase one of the SmartTOP modules, you will always be able to benefit from feature upgrades and compatibility improvements, you are never left with an outdated product.

Leave a comment

Starting immediately, the convertible module for the Peugeot 308 CC will include a Plug N Play harness. This new harness allows for a quick and easy installation of the convertible module.

Ocean, NJ, February 12th, 2011 — The Mods4cars SmartTOP convertible module for the Peugeot 308CC is now available with a Plug N Play harness. This harness is a custom development that allows easier and faster installation of the convertible module without any splicing into the OEM wiring.

“The Plug N Play harness allows for an easy way to integrate the convertible module with the vehicle electronics system”, explains PR-Manager Sven Tornow. “Through this innovation, any person can install the convertible module with ease allowing everyone to enjoy the comfort and functions of the product.” Sven Tornow further added.

The convertible module allows the opening and closing of the convertible top by utilizing the original vehicle key, even from a distance. The original key does not have to be modified or programmed. Furthermore, it is possible to activate (open/close) the convertible top while in motion up to a speed of 40km/h.

Added features such as individual programming of the module allow it to be completely deactivated, if needed. A standard USB cable can be utilized to update the firmware or program the functions of the module on a PC. All firmware updates are free of charge.
