i think mine took me like 6 hours, but i was a s2k newbie and I had never taken apart any of the panels before, nor did i have a super-cool write up like this to follow .

Soft top closes w/o a problem.

It is a HD. I just got mine delivered to my doorstep in two weeks from date of order. Excellent service from these folks. I will begin tackling the installation of it next weekend. I opted for the removable xbar and harness as I am not an all out track junkie............................................ ............ yet.
Firstly GREAT write up !

Just a thought,

Has any company thought of making a rollbar that would replace the factory roll hoops? I dunno they're kinda not needed now that we have a roll bar, and they add extra weight.

I am with the crowd who anxiously wants a roll bar, but one that i'm not going to have to worry about who's going to accept it (SCCA) and also one that doesn't take up any space behind the drivers seat. Plus if one took their time and modified the factory roll hoop plastics, it could actually look ultra clean!

Maybe I'll be a first and have a custom one made like that!! Oooh the creative juices are flowing!

J's

Update::

I took a look at the way the top closes, and the positioning of the stock roll hoops. It is definitly possible to some kind of blend of my idea and the alreaddy available idea, however in the location i was suggesting I do not believe you get as much clearance. Hmm i'll have to give this another

The above link shows what interior plastic trim pieces need to be trimmed\cut for the ELDA\GFL\ now HardDog to maintain the use of the Secret Compartment and stock roll hoops.
