Soft Top Suppliers

Would like to hear from those that replaced their top themselves what was their source/supplier for the top. Thanks all.

For those that are considering swapping at top - it is true that a few fasteners on either side hold it in, but also be aware that with at least the 3-bow tops, there is a micro-switch that needs to be disconnected too.

If you are planning on replacing a 3-bow top with the newer 4-bow top, I believe the microswitch is in a different place - so you will need to do some re-wiring. I also believe the convertible top transmissions are also different.
