Default orh top

I have a few questions.
1. How good does it seal around the tops of the doors?
2. If you remove the top completely to go topless, do you remove the hardware or leave it in place?
3. How does the front attach to the windshield? Is there a bar and if so, does it fit in the jeep once removed for a topless day.

1. It seals around the top of the doors by velcroing onto the hardware (rails) that are installed above the doors. It seals fairly well.
2. You need to remove the hardware. 6 bolts (I believe) to get everything out of the way.
3. The header bar is build into the top's front half. You could remove it, or roll the front half forward as there is built in straps to button it up, rolled forward.

I ordered mine 2/7 and have not received it yet. Called 3/28 and he said it should be shipped first part of next week. We'll see if that happens. Not too worried yet as a cold front is coming through Dallas next week and with rain and 50* temps. I will say you just never know with Tim, but I have heard very little issues or complaints wth the quality of the top.

Ordered mine Feb 13th or so...called him earlier in the week and he told me the same thing. Like yo I'm not too worried since temps are still a lite cool and rain here has been consistent. Still can't wait to get it though!!

I actually hate my hardtop. I drive mainly around town and hate the lack of versatility of the hardtop. Can't wait to get my ORH top installed and sell my hardtop. It will be like my Jeep is making me money!!
