I did but I also put in an aftermarket dvd receiver so bought the antenna too. I tried to use the factory antennae but the signal as still poor

Put the antennae right inside the left cowl on the hood

You can see it on far side of my hood

Can somebody tell me exactly how many inches higher the Gobi adds over the hardtop?

I'd really like one of these, but I'm limited by the height of my covered parking spot at work.

Not mine but saw this one at home Depot today. Only thing I will say is he way over paid. Local dealer had this for 42k and it was on lot for maybe a week. 2012 with about 35k miles or so. Still nice but this guy paid a premium. Gobi did look sweet though.

I had a stealth on my 2door and it was a bitch to get my hardtop off from the side, so I kept the top on. Other than that I loved it! You get what you pay for with Gobi.

You said "keep your light" Did you get all the noise with it? do you get any noise with it on the Gobi?

I haven't bought the gobi yet.. its a future purchase I plan on getting. I currently have just the 50 in bar and i get minimal noise. No annoying whistle that others gets. Probably the fact that my mounts (Rockslide Eng.) keep it close to the edge.
The photo I posted was one I found online doing research.
