Soft Top Woes

[BlackAura]

So I thought I had sourced most of the missing parts that I needed for my soft top, but it turns out (after checking out http://www.jeep4x4center.com/mopar/jeep-wrangler-tj/softtop-hardware.htm) I'm missing a lot more.

What I have:
- Door surrounds / frames (manage to source the hand screws that mount them to the roll cage)
- Rear window, tailgate bar and screws for mounting it.
- I've sourced the rear side windows, picking them up sometime this week
- Tailgate clips
- Roll bar bracket / clip things that the frame snaps into.
- Soft top, and I'm talking just the canvas.

Missing:
- the whole metal piping frame (which is actually a couple different pieces)
- the front latches
- other misc parts?

As per pictures:
- Rear Window + Tailgate Bar
- Door Surrounds
- Soft Top


Is it worth me trying to source the other parts, or should I just look into one of the whole best top kits that comes with all the hardware?

Edit:  Considering the safari top, wrap around windjammer, and deck cover....but I think some of that requires you to have parts of the original soft top hardware, I'm not sure.

If you need the rail that attaches to the top of the window frame I have a free one...

jpthing, the rail should have the latches on it then?

i am pretty sure i can get you a frame cheap.  then you are done.  i will let you know before you come get the windows and screws.
