Has anyone made there own hard top for a xuv.

I didn't want the full cab, just a top for those hot summer days. I thought about a hard top but the soft top from Deere was only $79. On and off easy and quick, had it out in a near blizzard and it never flapped or moved. Good deal.

I ended up buying the Deere poly roof for the HPX. Had thought of doing a full cab for snow plowing, but that got expensive quickly. The first storm after putting the top on, I found myself plowing snow/slush in some moderately heavy rain. The Deere top extends out to the sides enough to keep you reasonably dry. I am very pleased with it.

I'm now thinking of building my own extended visor out of plexiglas to keep the rain further forward without going to a full windshield that would require a wiper and heater, etc.

I suppose you could build a great redneck-style top using just a piece of plywood....

My thought: I have A Artic Cat prowler and have wondered how to make a "red neck top" too. Often I see one of these poly bed liners fly out of a pick up and just lay along the side of the road for days. Was thinking about grabbing one of those. Wonder how that would work?

One more for you Jack.
How do you think the soft top would hold up on a trailer 60 mph down the highway?
Thanks.

Hi, I just read your note, sorry for the delay, the box says John Deere LP93127 OPS Soft Roof. I bought from my JD dealer, he had a lot of them in stock. Installs easily, took about 10 minutes, no tools needed. jack
