Soft top question
Interested in a Soft Top for my BDR, what are the pros and cons of the vinyl or Fabric besides the price.
What are your thoughts on this topic |
I have the Vinyl soft top and use it every year to extend the season. I also have a heater which helps since the top leaks quite a bit.
|
Why did you pick the vinyl over the fabric
|
PM125, just as an FYI, if you do get this top, the install is not a DIY project and install is not cheap. Install involves pulling the windshield, drilling and tapping the windshield support brackets, drilling out all of the holes for the 'attach grommets.'
I cant remember if mine is vinyl or fabric...its sitting on a shelf until I can save enough for an install ($1200+) |
Thanks for the FYI, really appreciate it.

I have fabric top and after a lot of adjustments and weather striping got it not to leak my buddy has vinyl top ,Fabric just looks better my 2cents
|
I agree with you, the fabric looks much better.

Its just a matter of what you Like, it's your ride what do you like. I have Vinyl on mine and at the car shows people love it, the one's I win are mostly people's choice.

I installed the necessary hardware before I took it in without removing the windshield. I was extra careful with the length of the screws and put a putty knife between the frame and the glass so the screws did not hit the glass. I'm very happy with the look and performance of the canvas top.
