The install itself isn't difficult at all; it is just very time consuming and tedious; especially the rain gutter.

Oh, and don't drop any screws; you'll never get them back, lol

If it doesn't have it before, it will be a pita because then you would have to wire it up from the front, keep it simple. the top with the mod is perfect.
Good call, I'll order the glass top without the defrost. Plus I've driven my Mom's VW Bug b4 with a glass soft top and the thing rarely fogs up in the back lol.

hey yves, think you can bring your fender roller? lol, if I haven't found some place locally to do this, I may have to borrow yours. I'll even give you a rental fee!

I'll bring it charlie and we'll roll your fenders that day. that work for you? you need the rears or all four? i've done fronts before and their alot of work and very easy to crack the paint if not careful. can you bring a floor jack or do i need to bring mine? if you have special lugs, make sure to bring the socket.

just the rears. Fronts don't rub unless I bottom out completely. Let me know the date, and I'll clear my schedule. I do not have a floor jack with me at Fort Bragg; there was no way to fit it in my car

I would say on a Saturday I suppose, but really whenever YELLOWJACKET is available. Just let me know a date and I'll make sure I'm off work.

Also, let me know if you need my address so I can PM it to you.

Oh and if we can get a decent amount of people a cruise after would be fun
