    I didn't really want a full top, as I like the open air, but I wanted my stuff to stay dry. Besides, I don't think the Tigertop would have fit over the family bar. So this is what my wife and I made for about $30.

    It looks like it would catch the wind, but it doesn't at all. It doesn't make any blind spots - it doesn't even show up looking out the rearview mirror, yet all the stuff stays dry. There is a zipper on each rear corner, just hidden in the pic by the antenna, so I can access all sides without removing it. The front hoop is actually an old Bestop hoop that I cut down and slid into the holes on the sides.

    That was my first thought.

    Well done!
