For my clarification, do you mean "one touch" instead of having to hold switch (either direction) entire time during roof raising/lowering until movement is completed?
Seems to me that there are so many condition based parameters regarding roof movement ( speed limitation, loading platform position, etc.) that the reasoning used by many as to why continuous holding of switch is necessary, I.e. as another "safety" factor to ensure there is no "accidental" hitting of switch thus causing roof to go up/down, is not a valid one.

I doubt it. If it was that easy a lot of us would’ve done it.

Smarttop is $400ish and it’s a module that plugs into the top controller.

As it is, I just hold down my fob button as I walk towards my car to lower the top whenever I’m out and about and want the top down.

I also know most of the light cycle patterns in my area so I can time the top down at a red light if I feel like it’s time for top down while driving.
