That's a different top . Looks good. I have a top manufactured by EM for my older EM .I bought top , sidecurtains,bows, hardwhare.
I'm intimidated about the whole thing. I can picture me not accounting for something and have so many holes the car whistles as it goes down the road. I do a lot of stuff but drilling in my body is scarry.

I installed the EM top on my FFR prior to installing the current top. Go to the ERA website, and use their instructions, and it's quite easy. That was my first top installation, and it came out quite well. There some pics of the install on my web site.

I have the printed pictures from your old EM top. What was it about the old top that prompted the new custom top.That was a lot of work I'll bet.

The length of time it took to dig it out of the trunk and put it on, and the amount of room it used up while in the trunk.
