Thanks everyone!!

Yes Van I had thought about having the soft top replaced, but I don't like the style so it will have to all be redone!
Best price i have found around here with Bimi and 3 sided enclouser is $2500 maybe a hair more after I tell the guy what I want?

So for that cash I thought about a hard top, I am so confused! I see good and bad in both. But I am leaning heavy to the hard top.

If I could get a hard top for $3K I could wait a bit for the enclouser.

I have to make up my mind fast!! I have the soft top guy on hold but he wont last long.

i agree with slip.

mount antenna, radar, lights, on top.

underneath drop down an e-box.

maybe hang some rocket launchers and a couple of floods on the back.

Then you are stylin'!

I love my hardtop. Radar , antennae, outriggerer, rocketlauncher spreader lights all up there. I have my FF, VHF, FF2, FM/CD player all hung from it. Gets you out of the sun and out of the rain and fog.

agreed.

Good luck finding one for 3k. I think they are more than that if I remember correctly. For 5k, you'll get a really nice one.
