Soft top help needed!!

[bigbadchev84]

I just picked up a new soft topper and the instructions and pictures leave ALOT to be desired.

I am at the winshield header and am scratching my head??? The aluminum piece that they send in the kit with all the buttons says to install an 1/8" above the windshield gasket.

I currently have my windshield out and need the top on so that i can build my cage to fit underneath it.

A decent picture in the instructions would go a LONG way, but all I got are some pics from about 20' away.
So can someone give me a picture of what you did for the windshield. Thanks a ton.

My Softtopper did not come with this option. (I should have waited) The company website has a pretty good picture of it. (The picture is on the accessories section, not with the model pics) There are two components. The Rubber gasket and the Header Bar. I would take a look at the picture on the website and just go with it. As long as you get it pretty close, you'll be in good shape. There are a number of adjustments and ways to tighten the top after you have it all set up.. Even if you position it a little further back from the windshield to make sure and clear the windshield gasket once that is installed, I think you'll be in good shape.

My windshield has a rubber strip around it and dead center of the windshield is where I started the aluminum piece. I used a 1/8" drill bit to keep it from the rubber seal and worked out to the edges.
