Default Fast Back Soft Tops

What do you know about them? Who makes them? Pics?

Besides having less interior space, any downsides?

There are two that I know of one is from a company with a bad track record the other is a hard top design from a vendor here called Wild Boar. The hard top is a bit pricy though just for the look.

A company called Rocktops or something used to make them, but i heard they went under. They look really cool with all the different configurations. But $775...? A Llittle too rich for me.

Bestop is either in development or just teasing. They have a fast back softop pictured in with the picture selling their two piece soft doors for a four-door.

There was some talk on another post about it possibly being an "emergency" cover, but I think you can see the slide windows fairly clear so I think it may be "coming soon."

Brian, the picture link is okay. And anyway, Bestop is a sponsor here!
