Soft Tops

Postby TieNN89 » Mon Jun 08, 2009 1:03 pm

I'm soon to replace my softtop

Now I'm not so sure what to get

Stayfast or Mohair

I'm looking at getting it from these guys http://www.prestigeautotrim.com/uk/hood ... _hoods.htm

Are both these materials soft like a vinyl?
Whats the pros and cons between the two?

No need to PM, i'm right here :)

If you can afford go mohair otherwise stayfast is fine. I have the stayfast. They are both better than vinyl. They are both fabric tops and thicker than vinyl.

No downsides that i've had apart from when i first installed I had to keep the top up for about a week in the sun to stretch it. All good now.

Go the glass rear window if you can afford that option.

If you want to have a looksee gimme a call. You have PM.

No need for a group buy on glad wrap Wun. Just go down to coles/woolies and buy the homebrand :P
