You could use your existing top.Undo the rear straps, pull the rear around the bow, pull horizontally to the mid bow, do some rigging to fasten the straps to the bow no rops.Can't explain no more detailed info.Maybe go to the Vietnam mutt club site to see pictures, these people are in Vietnam.They improvise very well with what they got.I've done this way.
I also have a cut up vinyl top(the guy I bought the mutt from had made a bikini top for it.Of course, the ROPS is in stalled, I'll see if I can find any pics, but the photo posting is very hard to do as photobucket is not an option, postimage is another C.F. now.The one here I have trouble with. Back long time ago it was very easy to post pics.
Ya, WeeBee webbing is a very good way to to go.

Yes weebee is where I purchased all my cushions I was too impressed with the stitching being too lose there machine may need more tension on the spring. I’m just fishing. I don’t have a top at all to use I’ve been hesitant to even put one on so I’m finally going to put one on.

I was looking for some parts and ran across my old post just wanted to update now that i purchased my summer top a while ago.

I had to buy it from an oversea vendor because the stateside players appear to make to much money and refuse to make them. This is really nice for my area in South Texas.
