bestop safari bikini question.
im thinking of buying a mesh safari bikini for the summer but first i want to know about the noise if it's very noisy or not so much. any body out there have one?
thanks!! |
I have the mopar safari top and love it. It's not the mesh, but I wouldn't consider it "noisy". One thing you may want to look at it is how it attaches on - the mopar safari top clips right on - I know some of the other brands you have to buy attachment pieces. FWIW.
Make sure you keep in mind a rain plan with the safari top. Only problems I run into is safari top + no doors + slow moving commute + rain = me wet. |
Hahaha!! Thanks for the heads up.

pretty much all of your bikini tops / tonno covers flap. skid row makes the "top prop" and the "tonno prop" to keep them from flapping. while they give a mild deformed look to your top.. they indeed do work.. i should know.. i have both.

I've been running the Bestop bikini top and no doors since February. The top made noise slapping against the speaker box/ sound bar over my head. I rolled up a towel and stuffed it over the speaker box. You don't see the towel at all and it keeps the top from making noise.
Unintended benefit, I have a towel with me everywhere I go. |
Thanks guys!

I had the problem, what i did was buy some wide strips of velcro and placed them on top of the speaker bar hooked together and the top will stick to it, and when its in the sun it really bonds together good, it stops the flaping noise, and it can't be seen, cheap fix.

I shoved a piece of foam over the sound bar for the same purpose. It did the trick but over time it would walk forward until it dropped out.
Guess the answer our topic poster is looking for: yup, you can expect noise. Oh wait, don't want to completely mislead, mine is a bestop safari but not the mesh. |
