New seats and soft top order gone wrong. updated

[chuck]

The internet is good and bad. If anyone is not happy for any reason they can post on a board like this and the same minute everyone knows one side. Some don't bother to read the other side and some that do think that the vendor should pay no matter what and not defend and some will remember something that may be totally diff from years in the past and type yeah I had a problem with them also. But on the other side most will look at what is going on and apply reason. And in the old days one guy would have a problem and tell his friend who would tell his friend who would tell etc and the vendor had no chance to rebut. And the other good thing is anyone in the world can find a vendor with a few key strokes.

So I think I can help you out...

I remounted my seat and I am not going to use the factory bracket that came with mine... Please confirm bracket and part # listed below

I cannot have it there for this weekend but I can ship it next week.
I do not think it weighs alot but it is a little bulky...

I do not remember what I paid for it? $20.00 plus shipping from the west coast sound ok...

The rear seat bracket arrived today. Thank you

Chuck, the correct tinted windows arrived today with the fasteners I was missing. I will not have time to install them and confirm they fit until this weekend. Have to much school work to do and a real estate contract to write. More Bronco money. ;D

The seats are due to arrive this Thursday. It sucks I missed the three day weekend to get all this stuff installed and its my fault for falling behind on my school paper which I have to write. Now I will be running around like a mad man trying to get everything done, I hate writing papers. Also have four case studies due by the 26th. It will be well worth it.

Chuck, the clear windows where dropped off at the UPS store today. Thank you, BC for taking care of this.

My seats arrived today. Now I just need to find time to install all of this. Need to get started on my school paper first. My real estate deal last night took all night and this morning to get worked out so I didn't get to my school stuff yet. On a good note I may have more bronco money.

I will post pics of the soft top and seats when I get it all installed.

Glad it's all working out for ya.

The side windows fit fine. A little tug here and there just like the top but it all snaps down just fine. The top is completely installed now but I have yet to drive it. Maybe today after I finish installing the seats. Front seats are in, just need to get the back seat installed. I will start another post about the top and seat install, adding my .02 worth of input.

I did snap one of the top snaps that you have to screw in. I should have drilled the hole a little larger in the back bracing due to the metal being thicker but I got that fix. Just hope Lowe's or some one has those types of snaps.

If you can't find one let me know and we will send a couple.

Thanks Chuck. Lowes didn't have anything but I hope to be ordering a few more pieces from ya by or just after the end of the month. If I still need a couple of the screw down snaps I will let you know then. For now, I think it will be. I just left the most rear mounted snap above the pass side door out.

If BC Broncos' soft top uses the same canvas snap screws that Rampage uses, try Ace Hardware:

My Rampage top was missing the snap screws for the windshield frame, and the ones from Ace did the trick.

Those look like the same ones. Just need to find the time to get out and look for them now. Two weeks left of school and I am done!!! Then more bronco time.
