Rampage TrailView Fastback Soft Top for 2 door Bronco -- installed first impressions & photos

I adjusted that retaining strap so it is not binding. However it doesn’t really help. The issue of the gap seems to be caused by this extruded piece here in the photo below. It seems to be pushing the soft top outward away from the car causing the gap. Can this piece be adjusted inward toward the cabin?

About to pull the trigger on one of these. Weird the different pricing being they look the exact same from pictures. Has anyone else bought the Havoc Offroad Voyager Fastback Soft Top yet? Is there any difference besides well nuts vs riv nuts?

One of those is the 4-door and 1 is the 2 door. There are no differences other than the riv vs well nuts.
I used well nuts. Bought them off grainger because it felt like the safer option to not damage the paint or strip the threads.
I can’t comment on the rear window speaker bolts issue with the new branded top because I replaced mine with the Mabett pods so there is no pressing against the window.
there is a gap on the front driver and passenger window on mine when fully closed that I don’t like. I added some 1/2 inch weather stripping and it’s better but still doesn’t look like a water tight seal. I might buy some 3/4 high weather stripping and see if that does it.

The alignment holes in that piece are oblong if I’m not mistaken. So that should give you some adjustability. Maybe loosen and slide inward.I adjusted that retaining strap so it is not binding.

Why are you selling so quickly? Unhappy with the top?
See listing in the marketplace here https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/dfw-2-door-havoc-voyager-fastback-top.94384/
essentially I needed a new window and they sent me the whole thing. They said that was the only way to do it and to keep the rest of the top for parts.
The window in question has two crease lines that may or may not come out. So I’ve got an extra top I don’t have room for in my garage.

That's nice that they sent a whole new top. I have a four door, so can't buy yours unfortunately.

When I take off my rampage in the fall and attempt to get the hard top on (2-door) back on - I didn’t take notice of the orientation of the t-tops mounting plates. They are marked “front” but which is the driver side and which is the passenger?

Well I installed the Havoc Voyager Fastback aka "Rampage Trailview" yesterday. Then got to test it out on 280 mile drive. It did come in a Rampage box, pic below.
As far as thoughts on install, I have a few gripes. The instruction manual is the exact same as for the Rampage, talks about rivnuts, M6 bolts, and M10 bolts. Except the Havoc top comes with well nuts and nothing but M8 bolts. So a little annoying they didn't take the time to do a new instruction manual. One other big thing, why are the bolts so short? Here is comparison of the bolts that come with the top vs the original bolts from ford used on the hard top bracket.
I actually used the ford bolts instead of the provided in two spots because it was almost impossible to start threading the bolts.
Last gripe is that I messaged three different Real Truck representatives before buying the top and all of them said that the Havoc and Rampage are different tops which is not the case. The Havoc is just a rebranded Rampage with slightly different hardware. So not super impressed with their product knowledge. One went as far to say the Havoc is a Fastback but Rampage is not, when they clearly are the exact same in pictures.
Welp now that I got the rant out of the way. The install was fairly easy. I do like the change to well nuts as they are super simple to use, even without any info about them in the manual.

I had the same issue as @STX Bronco with the rattle starting at 65 mph and being unbearably loud at 75 mph or above. Video below with the rattle.
Luckily, I had already read through this thread and I undid the velcro on the back bar of the sky view as STX suggested 30 minutes in to the drive. After doing this my wife immediately turned to me and said you just saved this top. She was going to have me remove it immediately after our trip and put the hard top back on due to this rattle. The top does bubble up when undone, but the loud rattle goes away luckily. I left it unvelcroed the rest of our 4 hour drive which majority was spent at 75-80 mph and it was pleasant with no issues. It is much louder than our hardtop, but was bearable after getting rid of the rattle.

@WestTex so I have found if I have the Velcro attached about 6”-8” on both ends and leave the middle undone it keeps the bubble at a min. I did have a full bubble with it unstrapped into 25 mph wind and it yanked the top open. I do like top a lot. I got the stink eye from my wife until I figured out this trick out.
