Got any advice for soft top? So far JBG cheapest for the Bestop?
Yeah, Try to find an STC. Just MO, of course. Thats a whole separate argument/disussion. It all depends on what you what your soft-top for/to do. I have seen the BT and its nice and appears rugged and quality. But, I can drop or raise my STC in a couple of minutes (3 or 4 max). I also rarely run my zip-out (side and rear) windows or the window frames. So, for me its like a safari top most of the time. I think you can do the same with the BT, but I still dont think you can fold it back and put it up very quickly.
If I were to spend the money again, I would look into Saddle-Up's top or BCBroncos up-coming top. These are both brand new products, so you may see a pic or two, but they arent readily available on the market just yet. They will cost more, but will be more weather-winter functional and allow for roof-top storage, etc...so are more 'functional'. But, like I said, initially, its all about what you want. Personally, I like the quick converatble thing...hence STC. Good luck with your decision.
