I did contact Key. They indicated theirs is correct. I also talked to the guy who installed a Key top on my friends 69 Camaro & he said it didn't fit correctly on the tail area. He said he had to cut it & remake the seam. When I ask him his thoughts on this top he said the quality was good but he ask me to order the semi custom top which would require the tail to finished by him, the upholsterer.
I've not research 67/68 Camaro vinyl tops. I wonder it they are different than 1969? 1969 is 45-1/4 outside to outside of tail seam....Joe

For one thing, 69's did not stretch all the way to the drip rail. There's about a 1" (+/-) gap between the edge trim on the top to the drip rail.

That's one of the things I like about the 1969 Camaro vinyl top. Here's an interesting fact, almost 50% of 1969 Camaro coupes had vinyl tops....almost...Joe
