yeah, i would have just returned it right then and there as it was clearly damaged.

ummm, it was super easy to use and so far as i can tell, there are no problems with it.

actually, yeah. i mean, there were just a few nuts and bolts - can't see how you can screw that up. the header seemed to be well made, easy to assemble and a good fit. as far as the door surrounds go, they worked out great as well.

maybe. again, after reading what you said about yours, i was about to give up on the whole idea of going this route but in all honesty, my experience was nowhere close to what you described. i just read the easy to follow and well illustrated directions and it literally was that easy to install.

actually, i have a factory soft top and never thought it was difficult to install or remove. likewise, this top isn't either and if all you have is a hard top, i think you will be happy with this.

 

i had not heard of this but now that you mention it, i suppose water pooling on top is a possibility due to its shape when installed. essentially, it acts like a cab cover and from experience, they have this problem as well.

 

does it flap in the wind? It just doesnt look tight.

actually, it is very tight but in all fairness, i do have a rock hard sport cage and up front, the top sits very close to the center bars. on the highway and with the windows open, there is enough suctions that the top does make contact with the bars. however, that is the only thing remotely close to a "flap" and with the windows closed or even better, with the air on, there is absolutely no tap, flap or otherwise and if i didn't have the rock hard cage, i wouldn't have anything at all.

 

Nice! this is on my list...

When is my bank account going to outweigh my list????

 

looks great I have been thinking about getting this

 

any chance you can post a pic of the surrounds?

I have a soft top and just recently figured out that it's pretty simple to get the surrounds off (this due to replacing them because of damage, something i could have avoided had I taken them off in the 1st place).

How hard is it to remove the surrounds on this? Just enough to where there isn't anything sticking out asking for a tree to take hold of

 

Would you say this is a good all-year-round top for all of us (Read: Snow... rain... wind...)?

Or is it more of a seasonal type of deal? This may be a good alternative to the factory top....

 

OK I'm defiantely getting this now!

 

Nice JK you got there love the tire carrier and the top
