The pic in the gumtree link is a YJ but the product description seems to be the same as 'Rampage Products Replacement Softtop' like this one at Quadratec for USD399.99 (doesn't include frame)
http://www.quadratec.com/products/11133_01XX_PG.htm.

I didn't know anyone was selling Rampage tops locally.

yeah looks like his getting the rampage ones in, i think it's ment to be on par with the bestop ones...going to check it out next week so i'll see what the quality is like.....the other option is rugged ridge but not to confident with their quality.

Please let us know what you find because I have also been looking at this and trying to decide if it warrants a trip up to perth

i spoke to the guy and he is very nice, he doesn't have any in stock atm but he is getting a black diamond one in with tinted windows for me to come and have a look at, so i'll let you know.

im hoping they are good quality and not some rip off....if it's anything like the stock material as the guy explains ill defiantly snap one up.

I had also seen that guy on gum tree but my son needs a replacement soft top but funds are real tight.

Anybody got any feedback on these ones from the states.

that one looks good, i wonder what brand it is....looks and sounds the same as the rampage top, might email him and just ask what brand it is....pretty much $350aus delivered instead of $550 here if it is the same brand.

edit: i sent him an email to find out what brand.

those tops are smitty built as advised by the seller.

he said he also has the rampage ones that are a bit more expensive.

If there are any others interested in the smitty and are Melbourne based, maybe see if we can save a bit on a bulk buy and postage.

Anybody interested?

hey mate

yeah I'm located in WA north of the river. the top I have isn't "new" but it's in good condition...once this new one arrives from rampage products I'll most likely fit that one to my car and then have my current top forsale if you're interested

did they slash all your windows or just the one? and what colour is your current top?

soft top arrived last week.

It is a smitty bilt. Will get my son to take pics and sign up tomorrow and post them up. A bargain IMO.

it was a tight fit because of being new, but all went on fine.

I've had a smittybilt top for about 6months now and it's still as good as the day I put it on. I reckon it was a bargain. Had similar probs with the uppers, but was not difficult in any manner. Totally recommend!!!!
