Hi Will,
Sounds like the hardtop is still a work in progress. Overall, would you say it has been a worthwhile addition? I wondered about trying to get a hardtop together with seeing if the bulkhead behind the seats could be made removable, assuming it’s not structural, to provide more accessible storage space for longer tours.
Interesting point about the sound deadening, do you notice any difference when using the soft top?
Has anyone tried to fix your door leaks yet, I recall you mentioning leaks in a previous post. Do you have a process for drying the carpets out or just leave them to dry naturally?

Regards Ron.
