    I am having trouble visualizing how the top hinges for the doors attach, they look sort of long.

    They attach to pieces that attach to the windshield frame....those pieces should come with the top.

    The bracket has a 90 degree flat piece that bolts to the windshield.

    They do look long but it's because of the reach having to account for the windshield frame thickness also.

    That makes sense now, and those pieces do appear to be hanging off the hinges in the photo, though it is hard to tell for sure. IF I had the extra funds I might be driving down to Georgia.

    Hardware is often missing. Half the tops out there do not have everything you need...

    Does this one have filler plates that attach to the windshield frame like the Meyers tops do?

    Wonder why the OP hasn't responded to any of this. Maybe he sold the top, and didn't bother to update the add.

    Wouldn't hurt to send him a pm if you're interested in the top.

    There are no hinges or filler plates for the top (this is one of the "Half" that don't come with it.)

    The OP has been very busy but thanks for keeping this thread going I appreciate it greatly.
