Soft-tops come in many flavors. I dunno what to get.

I like this one:

I hear that is a good top but noisy, if you looking for a frameless system then that one, if got a little more and want a frame the Bestop Supertop NX. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWEqWrlh9O4

Hi Tony,
My brother fitted Best Top to his Suzuki Vitara about 10yr back and last time I saw it still looked in good nick. The Vitara is kept outside all year round back in Italy.
Concrats for the TJ, are you going to convert it to a CRD or fit LPG? I take it you are not going to run it on Petrol all the time :shock: :?
Fil.

Location: Hinesville, GA... nice lil quaint town...
a lot of guys that i know are going to / running the rampage top, i personally have a besttop and i must say the frame is a PITA... hopefully before ECS I will have a rampage top just like that the pocket it has in the ceiling is a great great thing... lol being able to store your windows flat and out of the way is really nice, my windows are currently folded up in the back behind my seat more-so limiting the already sparse storage space behind the rear seat... i say roll wit it!!! :2cents:

Curt, thanks. It's cheap too :D

Fil, I am looking to buy one, have found one cheap which needs a new top and has an unknown engine problem, waiting on a call from the seller and check it out, so I thought I'll investigate tops so I know what I need to invest in it.

Since it won't be my daily driver (DD's: KJ CRD / Peugeot 206 HDI) I'll keep it stock on gasoline.

I don't care if the top makes a bit of noise, the idea is to drive to the beach topless and in the winter I'll let it hybernate in the garage. :mrgreen:
