Installing an OEM Soft Top

[glovas807]

I've recently purchased an OEM soft top and was surprised when it showed up without any installation instructions at all. Would be interested if anyone has any insights on where I can find instructions or actual installation instructions that they can share.

Thanks in advance and apologies if this has already been discussed on another thread.

You can see exploded diagrams at SOR.com

It really only goes together one way.

Are you assembling the steel bows and the top or just the top on existing bows?

Both are pretty straightforward.Once you lay the parts out -if assembling bows-it will be self explanatory.

Along these lines, I want to order a top and make the bows myself to save the 1k. Anyone have a layout with dimensions of the bow system?

There is a thread from a few years ago with someone doing just this. Has all the dimensions, pics everything.
