Default freedom top question

is it possible to just run the front two pieces on the top? i want a bikini top but i also like the idea of maybe having a hard bikini like top if its possible to run the front parts an not the rear. anyone out there try this? it seems viable due to the fact the fronts screw down to the rollbar

Yup. On the back of the two panels, there is a black piece of plastic, just fold that down before sitting the panels in the roll bar, this will align them properly and make the sit flat. Just make sure you attach all the hold downs in the front/middle and definitely make sure you use the two screws/bolts to secure the panels to the roll bar.

X2. Make sure the tabs are out, or they won't tighten properly, and you can strip out the bolts. I run mine like that in the summer if rain is in the forecast. It has saved me more than once.
