FAQS

WHICH WINDOWS WILL FIT THIS TOP?

There are a few options. Contact us for details.

CAN I INSTALL A ROOF VENT INTO MY TOP?

Yes, to install a roof vent you need only to cut the opening, build a basic wood frame, adhere it to the top and install the vent.

CAN I ATTACH THINGS LIKE A RACK, SOLAR PANEL, OR AWNING TO MY HIGH TOP?

For sure! Anything is possible as long as it is done right. To attach such items you will have to ensure a proper backing to distribute the weight across a greater area. This can be as simple as adhering a 2x4, plywood, aluminum, PE, HDPE, etc. to the inside and then fastening the item to the backing.

CAN THE HIGH TOP BE INSULATED?

Yes, there are a number of options available on the market today! Some people have used a combination of rigid foam board with spray foam to fill the gaps. A more refined option in our opinion is to use a product like Thinsulate or a foil-backed foam insualtion.

DO YOU OFFER COLOUR OPTIONS?

No, it is difficult to match a vehicles current colour so all tops are produced with a white gelcoat.

CAN THE TOPS BE PAINTED?

Yes. Tops are produced with a white Gel-coat, but you can have it painted to suit your personal style and taste!

HOW CAN I FINISH THE INSIDE OF MY HIGH TOP?
