Need a New Top - Suggestions?

[mosu]

Cool, thanks for the tips! The retaining strip that you mention for the front bow, is that something that comes with the top or I have to go get it from a hardware store?

It can be ordered from one of the vendors if you dont have one...it is a standard item for fastening the top to the front bow.

Has anyone had any issues with not glueing the top to the front bow? I have heard both ways are acceptable.

I glued my top to the header. No problems...

Are you talking about the header or the bow? None of my flaps are glued to the bows. Ron glued the flaps closed but left the bows to be free inside the material.

I meant gluing the top to the front header bow that latches to the windshield....since you brought it up, are the three remaining bows wraped with fabric and float within the flaps or are they suppose to be glued to the metal bows.

You can do it either way since the top follows the bows.
