All orders has be placed
It is actually $139.99 shipped
BUT when you order from the site, it will actually charge you addition $16 for S&H
Don't worry. I will personally minus out the shipping when I manually process the order which will only reflect $139.99 shipped on you credit card statement. I am working on getting the website fixed in the next few days...

I actually got mine locally at a place called Fry's (big electronics store), but it's very similar to this stuff here:

Basically you're looking for abrasion resistance, not heat resistance. They have a pretty nice selection on that cableorganizer site actually -- that's a good find, and if you buy it by the foot it's not too pricey.
Just ordered mine too. I still think the lights are a big part of the noise but what are you going to do. I took the freedom top front pieces off for the first time since the rack and lights were installed. Now that was noise. Hope this helps. Doesn't look too shabby either!
Didn't see the note about free shipping until it was too late. That said, I found something else inexpensive that I didn't know I needed until I saw it. Who doesn't need an industrial strength, tire mount, trash bag? http://alphaexpedition.com/index.php...mages.tpl.html

Anyone else hitting the front part of the Gobi rack when taking their soft tops down? I have a time getting the top back/over the front part (especially with the Q/D brackets). Do I need to adjust something?
I've got to undo the slide clamps over the B-pillar and warp the header to get it behind and over the lightbar.

Now I can actually afford to eat lunch now.
