I just bought a soft top. I'm about to install it. Is it easy to do? Any advice to help it go smoothly?

Its not too bad. The directions suck so i looked up a couple of threads on this site and found some good pictures so i kind of knew what i was getting into before i started. The main thing i would say is take your time and pre-drill the header snap holes because the self tapping screws that they give you are crap and you will strip out the heads if you are not careful. Other than that it went pretty smooth.

After the header is on can you still use the hardtop or not?

You could still use your hard top but you would have to remove the header bar and the aluminum rails that bolt to the bed rails.
