Default Top Available from ERA

Have any of you purchased the top that is offered by ERA?

If yes, your experience, e.g. fitting to Cobra, look, etc. would be appreciated.

ERA #571 has a soft top that, I have to say, is one of the finest looking tops I have seen.

I know I may be the minority but I kinda like the looks of a cobra with the soft top on.

Here's a link to another...

Bob:
I've emailed you several times from my vegan2@hotmail.com site with no reply - perhaps for some reason you have not received my email. Anyway, I'm looking to buy a top, but I also want to replace all of the hardware that is used to attach the sun visors and side windows to the windshield. Do you have those parts?

Thanks

But, Where Is Bob?

Can he find a clip to attach to a real Halibrand knock off - keeps the center piece from coming off?

Where am I? Living in the State of Confusion...

I forwarded your request to Bryan, our Parts Guy.
