That’s what I figured. But what I’m seeing is it looks like the bottom picture has possibly a zip out back panel. As opposed to the top picture that I got from there eBay site which has Three straps at the top for rolling it up which is what I’m more accustom to.

When I see saggy and baggy tops I always wonder what the temperature was when top was installed. I also wonder if TROA purposely doesn’t punch the holes and install the grommets as of late so the fit can be fine tuned by the installer.

I knew what you meant. The style @Catching Neutral has is better looking and different from the pics on their advertisements/sites. His also has differently spaced/more straps across the rear.

They are a shop in south Florida. They sell soft tops and bows that are made in South America. I don’t think they use TROA (or whoever TROA uses) as their supplier. I used to think they did but there are few differences if you look close. Most noticeable is the rear opening design and the straps.

Typical South American confusion. Who the hell really knows what is what.
“You get what you get and you don’t pitch a fit” I guess.

I'll be curious on the locally made custom top (I'm in Boulder). I've started thinking about a replacement for my ca. 2007 Paki top.

Yeah my current top is an old canvas paki top. Unbeatable for the cost back in The day. But is now as waterproof and durable as an old pair of ripped up wrangler jeans.

You don’t see a lot of the Ambi door option. The Ambi door tailgate section, as it comes out of Columbia, is less than complimentary to the top. Basicly a stamped sheet metal covering. We’re modifying a set of AQ doors to hold the frames.
1st pic as it comes out of the “crate”. 2nd pic is a mockup of the AQ modded doors to hold the frames.
What is AQ?
