It took me 10 hours to get the plastics nice (but I am anal about fitment and do not mind spending hours on the car) The roll hoops by far took the longest because those cuts were significantly different than the Elda's. I'd imagine you could trim and reinstall the plastics in ~7 hours starting with the above pics

we need to see some pics

I'm a little worried about a roll bar that works with the soft top being high enough for me to pass tech. I think I'd come close to touching the soft top with a helmet on. I definitely will need to lower the seats.

Interior stripping (first time) = 3 hours
Roll bar install = 4 hours (3 hours with air tools)
Trim and reinstall plastic = 10 hours

I'm not putting the roll hoops or plastic back in, however, I thought the bulkhead had to go back in to add rigidity.

Anyone?

I saw that question on another thread and the answer was no. Please post pics of your install when you're done.
