    I'm embarrassed to say that i have questions here. I just got an 03, are the pieces close enough to just do this on my own? My new tracker came with a hardtop, which is great but it came with NO soft top hardware or pieces at all whatsoever. Im going into this blind. All i know is if o can make the pieces, and they are cheaper AND sturdier, its worth it. I think i still need the bar and some other hardware for the front part. Still figuring that out

    @colemansmith011 3 года назад

    I just made this and installed it for my passenger side. The driver side trim is plastic and still intact. When I attempt to shut the roof, the back corners on both the intact plastic trim and my newly fabricated aluminum trim slip out. I cannot for the life of me keep those back corners to hold the plastic soft top seal. Does this mean I need a new soft top or am I doing something wrong? I live in San Diego, so no cold weather is restraining my soft top's ability to stretch.
