What they do is send that bar with some empty holes where snaps go, and they send you self tapping snaps that go in the holes and screw in. And the tint on mine is the dark tint.

Re: soft top pictures

The tint is really nice. But what isn't so nice is that it scratches very easily.

Re: soft top pictures

the instalation isn't hard at all. Hardest part for me was trying to understand the instructions. But once I figured out what all the parts were and where they went it wasn't bad.

Re: soft top pictures

Just installed my new Softopper last weekend. The instructions were pretty bad, and one of the attachments at the mid-support broke during installation - there was just too much stress on the plastic part. I sent a note to Softopper and they sent a replacement part out immediately. All in all, I'm very pleased with the quality and customer service from Softopper. The only draw back is the noise when it is up - more noisy driving down the road with the top up, than with the top down. That said, I don't intend to drive with the top up very often...

Re: soft top pictures

Here's some of mine with the top up and with the top folded down. It's an STC Fastrack.

Re: soft top pictures

TTT Im on the fence about getting a top, help convince me. I also would like to know how you like your top's, do you even use your hardtops anymore, what color would you choose and if anyone would know if the top will fit over my rollcage. Also I made this top about a month ago I like it but it doesnt go to my windshield frame and after about a month it has stretched and now flaps pretty bad. But im not complaining since it only cost me $20 and 2 hours to make it.

Thanks
