California Tops...

[Jaguar]

Has anyone had any problems dealing with them? And for those who run them. What do you think of your top? How are they for leaks, highway noise, ect? I love the idea of a frameless top. Seems like way less hassle than an OEM or Besttop. Not to mention about half the price

I run the last generation top.  It leaks a bit at the door, but not bad.  I love the thing.  Really simple.  I will be buying another one.  I have heard the horror stories online, but have never had a problem with Tim.

Tim is not an honest man.  I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him  I will never buy anything from him ever again.  I cant speek for the quality of his tops but I have my reasons to not recommend him.  If you want further details pleaase p-m  me.

RckyMtnTJ, does he use OEM fabric/equal quality, or is it something cheaper?

I dealt with Tim a long time ago. I bought a top from him, but it wasn't ready by the time I got to edmonton (I drove up there with no top). he said it would be done that afternoon so I went and did some shopping. He came and met me at the mall, and had it installed on my Jeep by the time I came out. He was suposed to have made me a cover for my 33" spare, but he was short staffed (it was a long weekend BTW) so he refunded my $50. If that's not customer service, I don't know what is. I too have read hoorror stories on the net, but this was my experience.

As for the top, I have ran 2 of them. The second one I got used but I can say this. They were top quality. I never had any issues with either of them.

I love those tops.

Definitely lower quality than sail cloth, probably about the same as the older stock top material.
