it's ghetto but it works. check it:

2 pieces of closet hang track from home depot interlocked:

a safety chain in case the closet track fails (never did even at 70MPH sustained for over an hour driving over a mountain pass in the rain)

some aluminum supports to give it shape to prevent water from collecting:

Electrical conduit hanger clamps and turnbuckles to secure the windshield to the cage:

more conduit clamps, a caribeaner and a tie-down strap (all from home depot) to secure the back:

Looks like it works. Will the two pieces of track fit together as shown in my picture below, might provide a more secure connection?

no i tried that and it wont work. i was pretty skeptical (scared even) at first but I pretty much trust it now as-is. As long as there is tension on the top there's no way it's coming off

Reviving an old thread. This is good-looking for being homemade. Anyone else care to share their homemade bikini tops?
