Default Smittybilt hard top

Has anybody found any info on this top, other than what they have on their website. I am really getting pissed off with my leaking noisey factory soft top, and I need something a little more secure for college. I just happened to come across this last night, and for some reason I really like this design way better than the factory tops. Here is a link to the top http://www.smittybilt.com/product/index/177.htm I am trying to get a rough estimate on pricing for a 4 door version to see if it is even anywhere near my price range...

Carpeted headliner is a plus! What's the price?

To me the close up on the window hardware just looks cheesy. I think you would be better off buying a good used one. Just my two cents.

I'm afraid of dropping that much on a smittybilt product, especially a new at that, cause it is hit or miss with them. If not that, then I will probably just look into a fastback soft top of some kind, and just leave my doors unlocked

2700 is pretty steep. You could get a used hard top and have money left over for a soft top.... like trek top
