You're doing both? The way I read it, you're putting in a new soft top and getting a hardtop. The hardtop catchers are easy enough. Never done a soft top install but I heard it's a major PIA.

Kenta, he doesn't have OEM hardware so it won't be as easy an installing ours is.

I did a soft top swap (complete frame swap) for a nicer top/glass rear window.

it takes hours and patience, but its worth it in the end. take your time, keep track of things, and find a nice DIY.

do you have the complete top w/ frame or just swapping the vinyl?
