Hardware for Replace-A-Top
I just got a really good deal on a Bestop Replace A Top (PART# 79137) new in the sail cloth material. It was an impulse buy (ebay), because I have a hardtop but have always preferred the look and convenience of the soft top. I have an 2007 Sahara JKU and was wondering if I can buy some old soft top off craigslist and use it's hardware? Anyone have any problems with the fit?
Appreciate any help or recommendations on where to buy hardware.

I've done something quite similar in the past without issues. Just make sure that you get the proper hardware to match the top. I would prefer not to pull it up on the phone's browser but if your top is the old style (07-09) then go with that style top and so forth.
You can pick up used soft tops for pretty cheap and the old style ones are even cheaper though they are harder to find now (at least in my area).

As mentioned, make sure you get the right year hardware. Looks like from your part number it's an 07-09 top, so you need 07-09 hardware. Pay attention on Craigslist, sometimes you can find super good deals on soft tops that are complete.
