Anderson Composites Hard Top installed photos!

I suggest everyone who wants a rear cap only to give Anderson a call or email. Otherwise they won’t realize there is a potential market.

How does a rear cap only work? Are you saying you can put on a rear cap along with a soft top? This doesn't make any sense to me. Even if this were possible, seems like the rear cap would be 90% of the cost, so why not just get the whole thing?

1. How is it for squeaks and rattles? I was leaning towards the ADV one piece top for this reason, but I'm really liking this one.
2. What's the deal about only delivering to commercial addresses? Is it a liability thing?
3. Is it true if you pickup from an authorized dealer there is no shipping charge?

Thanks!

Yes thats exactly what Im saying. Its called a Bestop Skyrider which I already have. I have no use for the mid or front panels, and I would like to replace the POS paper mache rear cap with the anderson, if they would sell just the rear cap.

The headliner looks like it came out of Jeffrey Epstein's plane.

1. No sounds at all from mine
2. Not accurate. Mine was dropped at my house
3. Not accurate. Vendors don’t stock them. They are dropped shipped directly from Anderson irrespective from whom it was ordered.

Ick. I mean it looks good but can you imagine what’s on it?

Thanks! Just the information I was looking for.

In the words of G.W -- give it one heck of a scrubbing. Jokes aside, I like it. Thinking about getting my order in. How was the Install, can my wife and I handle it? I have a soft top with prep kit, does it come with hardware and everything needed? Which dealer did you use? Thanks!

Looks good. Love the texture, actually.

Simple. Bolt on a few simple bits that we don’t on soft tops. Everything is included. Lifting the back shell was easy enough. Only challenge is if you or your wife are short and you have a Sasquatch package it can be a challenge to lift high enough. Bolt it down, pop in the other panels and off you go.

The quality is so much better than my sister’s OEM hardtop that comparing them is almost unfair. For example, CNC machined latches vs. plastic crap, headliner, finish, etc…

I ordered from BMC out of New Jersey. Shipping price was better than the others I looked at. Their customer services was excellent.

Do these have a rear wiper?

Thanks so much for posting, I've been waiting for something like this. I know it may be too soon to tell, but would really love details on any troubles with leaks, weather-proofing, etc. I have a soft top and have my eye on one of these for the winter where I get a lot of snow, but only if it seems like there are no issues with leaking.

How long did it take from order to delivery?

 

[Aradmcc]

So what about taking all of the components off? Are the individual components heavy? Can one person do it? And about how long does it take?
