Door Surrounds....
« on: February 08, 2014, 03:50:38 pm »
Are they really needed?  I've never had them on my rig with my soft top of 10 years....needing to replace the rear window....however, I think there has been a design change....the teeth in the side zippers of the new rear window dont face the teeth of the old top....

Any advice on this?  I'm going to contact BestTop and see if they have changed the design....

Yes, the design as well as hardware and zippers are totally different from 10 years ago. It's called progress and upgrading.
Finding pieces for your top will be tough outside going to swap meets Jim.

Actually...I talked to BesTop and was informed that the design has not changed since I bought mine....the rear window does zip at the top....and was informed that yes, I do in fact need to 'fold' the teeth over to zip it up....and even the person at BesTop agreed with me that the design for the side zippers could be better....go figure
