Press Release: The SmartTOP additional roof control from the company Mods4cars for the Mercedes-Benz SLC Roadster is now available. The retrofit roof module makes for greater drive comfort with its smart function. With it, you are able to open the convertible top via the original remote control from a distance. The existing vehicle key does not need to be changed for this.
In addition, the roof can be operated while driving up to a speed of 60 km/h. The One-Touch function ensures that a quick tap of the top button is enough to set the automatic convertible top motion into transition. Eliminating the need for stopping and the cumbersome continuous pressing.
“We are pleased that we can offer all owners of the new SLC our smart roof control after such a short time and with the benefits of the numerous additional functions.” explains PR spokesman, Sven Tornow. The latest development makes it possible, in addition to the two main functions, to roll up the rear windows with the top down.
Furthermore, all windows can be opened and closed separately via the remote control from outside the vehicle. As confirmation of the central locking, a short beep signal will sound. It is also possible to activate the hazard warning lights during the tops folding movement. For vehicles with the Keyless Go package, the roof top can be opened and closed by triple touching a door knob.
Even in the most recent top control made by Mods4cars, all functions are programmable to your personal wishes. The module can be deactivated completely. When starting and stopping the engine, the current top movement will not be interrupted. Thanks to a standard USB port, the SmartTOP convertible controller can be configured on the PC and available free software updates installed. The supplied plug-n-play harness also ensures for a very easy retrofit.
