Thank for the Link!

Would be perfect for days you want to drive with the top off but not have to deal with the annoying flex.

We Gone · 08-07-2016

I agree, have wanted one for years, Tom only makes a run when he can many at once has to do with getting them powder coated at the same time.. If your interested now is the time.

This would have to be bolted in place after the roof is removed? I guess you do that before you leave on a drive and leave the top in the holder in the back?

G8nightman · 08-09-2016

Never got a response from him.

Yes bolts in place of the top. Give Tom a call and leave a message he will get back to you. I spoke with him yesterday.

You could either leave the roof at home or put it in the hatch.

I have one of these and love it! It looks good too -- much nicer looking than that other one with the square tubes. The body is stiffer with this on than with the roof.

Any chance someone can post a ballpark cost here? Or do we each need to contact Tom separately?

I'm interested. Seems like a sound idea and would let us enjoy open top driving more. There was a guy at MR4 with one and he really liked his.

Thanks. - Russ.
