header panel for soft tops
 
So i know Rob makes the fiberglass header panel for soft tops etc... And that is my current plan to purchase one... but curious if anyone else has come up with something similar to accomplish the same a little more economically?
Thanks

I actually made one out of steel. It bolts to the original mounts. If you have a welder you can whip one up for cheap. I think I have $30-$40 into it. I think I can improve on it but for now it does the job.
