Default seriously!?

Had ONE of my t-Tops stolen last night. Not both, only the driver side. Nothing was missing from inside (incuding cds on headrest just below the roof they took) So I am assuming it was just some kids thinking it would be funny.

Problem is I have to get something to replace it and had been thinking about getting the Bestop bikini jammer and duster for awhile.

For now I think I may just get the bikini cause' cash flow is tight.

Question is do I need anything else to put it on since I am coming from a factory hard top?

I have that top & yes you do need the front channel.

If you want the top to be sealed on the sides (Between the doors and the roll bars), you would need the side rails from the soft top. I don't have the rails, so the instructions say to fasten the velcro straps to the roll bars. This leaves a one or two inch gap around the roof. No big deal for me, but FYI.

If you get the duster, you also need to have the right & left tail gate mounts & tailgate bar. You should have these parts already again if you have the factory soft top.
