Hey everyone, bumping up this great thread. A few pages back I posted about my experience doing the swap from hard top > soft top and having a hard time getting it to close and lining everything up. I couldn't get all of the 3 bolts on one side in as the holes didn't line up. Then (in the...
Hi All, I am looking to replace my rear soft top window and not having much luck finding anything. I have not been to the dealer. It has a couple of scratches on it, and more importantly some of the plastic tabs in one of the lower corners broke off, and it doesn't fit tightly in that corner any...
Thanks for the responses. I did some listening and fiddling with the seat belt cover during school drop off this morning and I'm afraid that is not my rattle. Mine is definitely coming from somewhere above that area, near the bracket that the front panels of the hard top clamp into. All brackets...
Anything on this? I've got 2 rattles that are driving me mad since I swapped out the hard top for the soft top.. This one (up near my ear on driver's side) is more noticeable at low speed and it's a fast paced quiet "tapping" on every little minor bump. I've removed the airbag cover panels, put...
I have to say, 4 days in and I'm disappointed in the swap. It seems like the entire soft top needs to move forward a half inch. I had the soft top all the way down today and was loving it. Then I went to put the top back up, put the windows back in etc The guiding pin on the passenger side does...
You all might be right in searching for an image of the brackets. I based my statement on actually keeping them loose and then putting the soft top back into place but I think we may have pulled it off before checking the bolt/hole alignment once we realized there was not going to be a way to...
It is definitely confusing to try to piece what you need together. Everyone did a great job in this thread listing the parts out but it's still a little overwhelming. Feel free to post pictures and I will at least lend my advice as someone who just did the swap.
I wouldn't worry about the...
I searched a few topics on the horn and I'm wondering if mine is broken. I saw posts talking about how it is dual tone. Mine is not dual toned, but it is very high pitched. It is almost comical like a toy car. It did not seem like this was a common problem when I searched. Might one of the horns...
Ha I can address both with the same picture.
@PapaSmurf Do you mean the bracket behind the plate the soft top bolts onto? There is no play in that bracket whatsoever. Or are you saying there's something you can adjust behind that bracket?
@Kach Vartan They are for the quarter panel brackets...
Follow up. You can see the bracket on the driver's side. The bottom hole for the bolt is not aligned and I couldn't get the bolt in there. If anyone has any ideas what may be going on, I would love to hear them. Hopefully make this process a little easier in the future.
Thanks, this helped a lot. I was able to get it in no problem using this method and then once we had the hard top off it was very easy to go straight out the back with it.
Putting the hard top on to me was about 20x easier than the soft top. I had a really hard time lining everything up...
@Papa Smurf I need to transport the soft top down to the shop tomorrow to try to swap it out for my hard top. I finally got all of the parts and brackets. Any other tips on how you fit it into the cargo area?
I ordered 2 (along with a few other hard top > soft top conversion hardware pieces) from Levittown on the 16th as they were showing in stock. I got an email on the 17th saying my order was in progress and all parts were on in stock when I checked my order status. I did not hear anything else so...
Hello, I'm new to the forum. I have a 2022 Wildtrak 4 door with a hard top. I just purchased an OEM soft top yesterday. I have seen conflicting info on this topic of whether you have to remove the windows to put the soft top fully down, and most of the info I'm seeing on the topic in this forum...
