Mod Note....

Spoke with Trashman..

He is looking for help with a pattern for installing the studs that would hold down a soft top.

Can anyone help? He did not specify which body kit he has; maybe he can add that info to the thread

If you post pictures of the car, including the interior, there are people here that will be able to identify the kit manufacturer for you, and that will be the start.

Where are you located. Maybe someone will allow you to take measurements from their car.

Not all bodies have the same basic dimensions. Instead of locating the studs first, I would fit the bows and fabric first. Then use the location of the fabric flange determine the best place for the studs.

Soft top installation
