Bikini's
Anyone besides me ever rigged a bikini top and how did it work.
When I had a roll bar in my 1st blazer I bought a piece of bungee cord about 7 ft long and attached 2 hooks like you hang a bike from in your garage to the ends. Then I threaded it through a seam in a piece of canvas-type fabric I got from a boat store. I stretched the bungee around the lip on the top of the windshield and back to the roll bars and I was good to go. The only problem I had was that at high speeds it would stretch real high... Too bad I don't have a roll bar anymore- anyone got one they want to get rid of?

I've heard about people rigging a bikini top from a CJ7 or CJ5 to work on ours. I don't have a roll bar either, but smittybilt supposedly makes one to fit ours. When I finally get mine ready to drive, I'll be wanting to do the same.

Who cares?!!
I've heard they're very expensive and require a lot of maintainence. And as far as the Blazer top, I can't help you.
