I won a 'Skytop' at an auction and I am really happy with it. It is just a tinted lexar piece that uses velcro straps to hold it in place to the roll bar.

I use it all the time.

I checked into the mesh. I have yet to see one in person, but what I've been told is to picture a screen door. It will provide some shade, but water can still get thru...even going down the road.

yep, put my Bestop mesh bikinii on this weekend and wasn't impressed.
4 of the 8 snaps to the header did not align correctly... the mesh sure didn't seem to block out much sun(maybe cause it was a typical 100deg Texas summer day), and it sure didn't block much of the wind either. Probably should have got the canvas version. Have my softtop back up today.

Wow page 3 and still no hijack. That Spiderweb is a nice setup except I still think it should be able to keep the rain off without help. Are there any out there other than Offroad Hero (please don't go there on this thread) that rolls out of the way and goes back in place when you need some shade or dry?
