It sure would be cool if any of the other top manufactures offered a special discount to those that have been screwed over. Bonus points if they post that deal in this thread!

curious.. IF APG refers sales inquiries to ADV as posted repeatedly here, why when building a Pre-runner (what is a pre-runner?) for you, did they not go to their "partner" and "exclusive distributor" and say we have an opportunity here to put the ADV branded top on the @LiteBrite pre-runner and get more exposure. Seems a bit crafty for APG to have @LiteBrite market this as the "APG Prototype"

I would assume because APG is the designer and manufacturer and had a prototype on one of their in house vehicles which they removed to put on our vehicle to test it out. We do not have a production top. We have one of their finally revision prototype units and are supposed to swap to a production unit after customers receive their production units. There is no scheme here are far as I can see. It takes a lot of time and effort to make something like this. Hell, even the back glass that is curved was a huge undertaking to have made. To try to design and make something like this from start to finish I would think would take 3-4 years and millions of dollars with countless prototypes being built and tested over months to find the issues.

So I'm confused... SUPPOSEDLY this has always been APG's top... And supposedly ADV was going to be a distributor for APG.... and ADV has been holding off/lying to order holders for last 2 years +.
Now in your comments above you make it sound like prototypes looking good and APG about to start selling "their" top.
So if the "APG" top is about ready for sale, why wouldn't they ship to all the ADV customers (who once again was a distributor). Did APG think they were sitting on a cash cow? Said fuck ADV and all the money they gave us, we are going to make a killing on this top.
And on to the next, a lot of time to design and manufacture this top? LMAO. SORRY APG, but Turn Off road, Anderson Composites, Rally Tops, & Ford ALL beat you to market.
Just the way this is playing out, I'd be surprised if anyone would trust APG enough to buy their hard top.
