I got a vis carbonfiber hardtop I just installed like 2 weeks ago. The mounting brackets are very cheap looking but get the job done. I am missing maybe 1 or 2 bolts total since it didn't line up well but for sure works and isn't going anywhere. You just got to make it work and have to bent the bracket alittle since every car is different. I would highly recommend the carbonfiber top. It looks really good and the top doesn't leak or anything even if it is raining hard. I also recommend cutting out a old shirt and put it between the bracket where it connects to the hardtop. It takes all of the little sqeaking nosies away. It is very quiet in the cabin unless you go over a big bump since the hardtop flexs alittle. I need to take some pics of my car it looks really good. I got a silverstone with carbon fiber top = hottness

OEM latches are the way to go.
