**Thanks to a Forum member, found out "BestTop" NOT ACCURATE, 28 AUG WAS TOLD WEBASTO makes the soft top for Ford to assemble. Webasto doesn't sell to customers, must go through Ford. The part I broke is the Header Assembly, still need the Ford Part Number??? Help is appreciated!!
*18 Aug Updated pics*
**Really need Part number help from forum*

So just two weeks into ownership of my Bronco I broke the Soft Top!

The Broncos been great, from wading into the gulf extracting a Waverunner, to hauling luggage and passengers to and from the airport with ease, and swallowing a flatbed full Sam's club items it's cavernous cargo area!

In exchange for it's fantastic abilities and service I give my bronco a big thank you by smashing my soft top into my garage wall. I probably would have been better off had the bronco been safely held at the Michigan Assembly plant!

I wonder if there's a part number for just the composite panel at the hardware screws into?

this is the third soft top related damage i've seen- video on youtube of a woman hitting the soft top on the garage door and another one posted here on the forum- i guess this soft top lifestyle takes some getting used to- i had a convertible but that top would hide away behind the tonneau cover- this soft top can stick up and add height
going to put a sign in my garage that says: "STOP- DO YOU HAVE THE SOFT TOP UP?"

Yep, this is definitely a soft top right of passage. I learned that lesson on my Jeep (y)

I have no idea why they call it a right of passage, because it definitely feels wrong!

It's almost as embarrassing as it is sad.
