Which convertible top is the best?
 

I want to get a top and see three different models available for the 1st gen Blazers.

Bestop Tigertop

Which is the best top, easiest to install, least damaging to the vehicle, best looking, highest quality, easiest to remove or store on the vehicle, etc?

The Snap Top looks cool, but appears to require drilling in the body for snaps.

The Fastrac top appears to be the sturdiest and best looking, with no visible snaps.

The Bestop appears the "frumpiest", but also has few visible snaps.

What do y'all think?

I have an old Kayline (same as the STC snap top) on my 69 and it is great. I also have a brand new Fastrac waiting to go on my'72. I went with the fastrac for my '72 based on recommendations and testimonials on this site and CK5.com. I haven't been impressed with any photos of the bestop. They never seem to fit quite right. STC (http://www.specialtytopco.com/) makes good products from what I have seen. I got swatch samples prior to ordering the fastrac (actually ordered mine through http://offcamber4x4.com/ because they were extremely helpful in my decision making process and, at the time I was a CK5 member and got a discount.) I went with the white because it was almost a dead match to the off-white interior in my '72. As soon as the weather gets nice enough and space is cleared in the garage, my hard top is coming off (for the first time) and I'm going to install the soft top.

You can download installation instructions for the STC products from their web site. It shows you exactly how many holes :( you will need to drill into the body of your truck.

Its all about the STC
I'm taking my tail gate off, damn thing weighs too much for what i'm payying for gas. I need to oaky-rig up a deal to solve the problem w/ the piece that runs along the top of the tailgate since it wont be there. Not a hard problem, the problems getting my lazy ass to get it done haha

It hasnt blown off yet and i'll run 90mph up and down 101 all day ;) But really... it still fits NICE, not tears etc.... its even nicer then my girls jeep wrangler soft top which is in nice condition (Shssssshhhhh)
