Why not make the top with the snaps in a seprit bag so if you deside not two use them you dont have to you can buy the tool to put the snaps on from any boat or RV store or have a local shop do it. and Im sure if you make the top large enought to go 6in past the door it will fit any roll bar out there. The rear straps should be adjustable any way to alow for it streching with time It would be a good all arounf kit that way that would work with almost every one set up. We could all mesure the ditance from are roll bars to the door piller to use as a refrince point and get an avrige lenght.

Those are all ideas that I think are good. I'm sure that is what he is going to say about the snaps and it sure makes since so people get the snaps exactly where they need to be. I hope to get some more info today. If not today, I am away tomorrow but hopefully can respond Monday.

68 names now. TonyP's friend will be making a prototype for TonyP's Blazer. Hope to have pics and a firm price soon.

Yukon Jack 04-26-2004 12:24 PM

Put me down for one. Would prefer no drilling for snaps, but lets see what they can come up with.

Is that material waterproof? If not could it be made that way? I could dump the soft top completely.

that is marina canvas and is waterproof...I'm having him build me a top that will be a 1/4 top, then have a zipper on the back side of it to add a cover for the back seat...

MMGOODIE 04-29-2004 01:59 PM

That is tight. Is there a solid price yet?

BTW thanks you two well three including the fabricator.

Yukon Jack 04-29-2004 02:13 PM

Sure looks great. Sounds like we should have an e-mail going out shortly with pricing and more specific info.

MMGOODIE 04-29-2004 06:10 PM

this is like way OT (but it does keep it TTT) but looking at the third pic I noticed the little hole by the wing window...what is that for.

NuBomb 04-29-2004 06:16 PM

That looks great. Thanks for the email Yukon.

Tony, do you have any pics of your roll cage. It looks like it attaches at the top of the window frame. If it does, can you still use a full soft-top and hard-top?

I'm thinking you are looking at the top of the door frame, if so then you see that I have the plastic cap off the top of the door. Or it might be the "L" bracket for my fasttrack soft top.

MMGOODIE 04-29-2004 06:25 PM

actually the one right below (which I should have said in the first place...sorry) the wing window.

raptorgta 04-29-2004 06:29 PM

Looks great. How does it work with the windows rolled up? This top will be the only thing that keeps me dry after I take the top off for the summer. Also my Blazer doesn't have any snaps, it has some kind of railing on the windshied frame. Will I have to change it? Will it work better with snaps? Thanks and keep up the great work.:metal:

it does look like a bar over the passengers seat...but no bar, my hard top and soft top both fit over the roll bar...

oh that one...
the doors both had small speakers in them, I cut out some carbon fiber bowtie's and covered the holes with them...

MMGOODIE 04-29-2004 06:56 PM

Thanks tony

hchconst1@aol.com 04-29-2004 08:23 PM

That top looks great! Will it be available in colors or black only ( which would be fine)? Any pics of how it mounts to windshield frame?
