ABSTRACT:
A convertible top for a passenger motor vehicle, with the convertible top including a top covering, longitudinally extending side members, and a main bow. The main bow is coupled to the body portion of the motor vehicle and is connected by an articulated lever system to the longitudinally extending side members, with the top covering, in an area behind the main bow resting on at least one reinforcement bow. To reduce the number of components and prevent the generation of wind noises, the reinforcement bow is spaced from but attached to the main bow and a rigid form-unit is interposed between the main bow and reinforcement bow, with the top covering resting on the rigid-form unit.
