Default Any Fun Mods for Freedom Top?

I just bought a hard top for the tonka, and was wondering what kind of fun stuff people have done to theirs that I can do before I start making up new mods to do.

First thing you need to do is make a lift for the top.

Crash is a big guy. He can probably man-handle it off by himself no problem.

one guy put a third brake light in it. have you seen crashes jeep? he probably just bought the hardtop so he could dream up some mods for it. This guy has D rings and extra factory fogs in factory bumpers, home made snorkle, 6 lug wheels. painted on rivets, who knows what else... Hell he even has a heavily modified body (human, not jeep). I have a feeling there will be some new hardtop mods in the write up section soon. lol.

BTW, his jeep is very nicely done and works very well offroad. I hope that comment is not misunderstood.

I made custom top covers, much, much cheaper than the Mopar...

Default I wish I had the cajones...

to cut the center section out of each half and insert 3/8" smoked, scratch resistant lexan so I would have a permanent sunroof.

I think someone already makes clear/tinted halves for pretty cheap.
I was thinking about those myself
