ALright after days of looking i finaly found one for 500 bucks. non-demil.

What about a hatch? anyone have an idea? another app. perhaps. got a few ideas maybe a giant moon roof is the simplest.

WOW i hate it when i answer my own question but check this out im lookin at the 30x30 size. it says 1200 bucks when "profesionaly installed" and paying retail price. however i have never done neither of those in my life. I figure 500-600 bucks. But man talk about cool. dye the canvas green and it keeps that green cavas top thing alive!

Did your source have anymore ringmounts?

HRD,
Forget the hatch, crawl up on the bed. Save your hardtop. The Hummer roof hatches are only about $150, I was thinking of those, some guy on Ebay has 'em. Personally I'm gonna keep my hardtop rainproof and just carry a can opener in the glove comparment.
Did you get the little barrel gizmo clamp?

 

[hot rod deuce]

There is no saving my hard top, its been cut in evey direction and is now 4 feet longer

Whats this barrel gizmo you speek of?

 

[readyman]

Oh yeah I forgot about your top.
It's to secure the M2 barrel during transit. I'll show you tomorrow with a pic. It mounts to the little tabs on the top of the front leg.
