Just curious as to how a hard top is mounted to sierras?

How hard is it to mount a soft top to a factory hard top and vice versa?

mounting a soft top to a tin top requires a full body swap, unless you just want to drape it over the tin top like a car cover?

the fiberglass hard tops have a few different over center latches & clips to hold down the 2 sections.

By hard top i mean fiberglass.

Can you fit a soft top to a sierra which was factory fiberglass roof without mods? or will you need to drill the body for the studs?

You will need studs for back tub sides, and front window, special studs for tray door, a Front window channel(if it doesnt have one) and rear softop support bar

And the rope tracks that run down the back of the b-pillar.

How hard is just the front half of the hard top to a soft top?

Hoping to mix that with a fast back soft top?
