Hey guys i want to replace my soft top because i recently got two cracks on my plastic window and i havr a couple of questions. What are the best brands for replacement tops? If i want a glass window do i need to buy the top with a new frame or can i use my old top frame? And what are some places that you guys would recomend for the installation?
Thnx!

I know Robbins tops are a go-to brand for a lot of people.
Beyond that, I dont know answers to the other questions...

We need to have a group preventative top maintenance day. Aaron is right, robbins tops are a great alternative to OEM, however OEM used tops in good quality do pop up quote often on the classifieds.

You do not need a new frame to get a top with glass

It's a pain, but anywhere you take it will probably be an expensive nightmare. Paul (H2kBBap2) had a new soft installed and it never fit right. DJMike, Tommy, and Anthony I think are pretty knowledgeable and i'm sure would be able to lend a hand or some advice on doing the install at home.

Hope this helps,

A used oem top will work well you can make some adjustments to keep the metal from rubbing on the fabric. With a couple of peopletop replacement is a diy project.

^^ I have a glass window sitting in my garage if you want it. But I don't know if plastic windows are bigger or the same shape as glass. Anyways, pm me if your interested.
