Sunport VS One Piece
« on: February 17, 2005, 12:57:04 AM »
Well, my 92 has a Sunport top on it that needs to be replaced, problem is, they are very expensive compared to the one piece tops. Has anyone here had both, and if so, which one did you favor?

I like my Sunport a lot...way more options for the amount of coverage you want to have on a given day :) I went from a Bestop soft top to a Steel Horse soft top to a hard top, then back to the Steel Horse soft top, bought the Sunport when the Steel Horse got sliced ;) I am impressed with the quality of the Sunport and have had no issues with leakage.

I think I am going to break down and get either a tinted window top or a sunport, I just got outbid on a one-piece on ebay, and am kind of happy I did.

Where can I find a 98 Kick tinted window top.  

Also looking for a Sun Port front piece.

  (Don't think the year matters much up front)

I have a new 98 Sunport rear in the box, But no front.

I like to run topless whenever I can, but people look at you funny, when the temp is just about freezing, and you're running topless.

If the sun's really beating down, I run with the back windows zipped out, or with the bikini.

You'll need a 95 or newer up front.  The way it attaches to the header bar is different on the earlier models.

I saw a Bikini top on Ebay that stated 1995 1996 ?  Any ideia why it wouldn't fit my 1998.  

I thought 1995 & 1996 was where the split occured with the different rear design.  

I have not looked at my dead 1995 yet, my DD conv is the 98.

    The change in the rear design occured between 94 & 95.  95 thru 98 tops are also the same so that bikini should fit!
