finally got the hardtop mounted using some truck cap clamps. I think I'm going to use these vrs. drilling the top. Seems to be a nice tight fit and a fairly easy to remove.
Much like the original Meyer top a filler piece is needed to completely seal the A pillar.
Seems to be an nice tight fit, can't see any daylight through the seam.
Used some shims to get proper alignment of the doors to the top.
Keeping in mind there is a slid latch on the rearward side.
Took several measurements and a couple deep breaths to drill into the tub for the hinges.
overall happy with their placement and more importantly their function. Doors seal well and latch properly..
I didn't drill the other 2 holes yet, (or the driver side for the matter) I wanted to leave enough adjustment if the first car wash ends up being a bath.. Made out amazingly well with the interior map pocket to roll cage clearance...
I have some better ideas for hinges and hinge color or treatment... (body blue or galvanized steel) the cheesy black omix pieces are not doing it for me..
Need to do drivers side and some work on the spare tire carrier arms..
