Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hello all,

I'm making a soft top for my MQ and I'm after ideas or designs for attaching the canopy to the roof.

I'm specifically after pics from those with them fitted and tips from those that still retain the capability to fit the old hard canopys.

Thanks Guys.
The more pics the better.

here is 2 soft top pics dunno if it will help but here u go

ok well i havnt got a soft top but hav been toying with ideas i would look into using a piece of plastic / steel sewed into the front liner the same shape as the canopy /roof where they meet and hav wing nuts to attach it thats my 2c neway let me know how u go

Zer0,
I've seen those two pics. I think they belong to Screwy and Dr Frankenstien.

Thanks but I'm looking at closer pics for what I'm after.

Rockrover,
I know what you mean and I've thought about that myself. My old FJ40 had a soft top and the front of it fastened to the front of the windscreen. The sides, however, had to be slid into a channel to be held into place. Check out the pic. I think these things are used on boat canopys too.

Cheers
Lewie

here are a couple of my old setup waaaay waaaay back in the day

screwy

Are they press studs all the way around Screwy? How did that go with rain?

yes press studs all the way around. it never leaked in once while the car was parked.

it did however leak in at the top down the back of my seats when i was driving......

other than that worked really welll

Good old annexe track does the job. My top is for sale if you want it! cost $500 to be made. Who-ever wants it can have it for say $150 + postage but thats with no internal poles. Postage would be around $30 anyware in AUS

thats a nice looking soft top!
