It was about 7 weeks in the making, but it finally got here Thursday, just in time for a trip up to Eagle's Canyon for Viper Days! I snapped a few pics of it; I hadn't seen a Gen. I with the top and updated wheels yet, so I thought I'd share. Excuse the quality; they were taken with my phone.

And here is a pic of Ryan's (Got One's) car and mine, so you can see the differences between an AP Engineering top and an Autoform side-by-side.

Thanks for the compliments, guys!

To other guys who've had the top or have a top; how much does it rattle/squeak? My brother had an MG convertible and my dad always had Jeeps, so I've accepted rattles and squeaks as part of the convertible package. Were you guys able to isolate most of them, or do you still have a significant amount of cabin noise? I've tweaked the top enough to get it down snug, but haven't tried chasing down the last few little audible annoyances. Thanks in advance!

It should be there.:dunno: Windows too!

As for the squeek, I redid the rear mounts kind of permanent. My top I never took off. I do have the factory rear mounts also.:2tu:

We have some cold days here and there...but nothing like what I grew up with in Missouri. On cold days last year I'd throw on my ski jacket and gloves and hit the roads. I got mocked pretty heavily on a drive we did with some Ford GTs; it was 45˚ and I was the only ******* (stupid!) one. What can I say? Fashion over functionality; that soft top is ugly!

It's been in the 40's at night here and has been hitting mid 70's during the day. So the drive too and from work is brisk, but if you get out mid-day you can drop the top comfortably. I'm still tweaking the top and loving the look, so no matter HOW nice it is here for the next few weeks, the top is staying on!
