I would be a bit concerned about the rather complex and finicky drop top mechanism especially given the fact that the front edge of the trunk lid rotates 90 degrees toward the back of the car in the process. I'm not so sure you would want to mess with the delicate balance of the whole system unless you just don't plan on dropping the top anymore.
