IANAREA Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 Hi Guys. Does anyone have any info or experience on the best Surrey Top and Backlight to get? Would be interested in everyones comments. Thanks Ian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 Hi Ian, The original ST surrey top and rear frame would be the best option as the frame will take a glass screen - but silly money However the Honeybourne fibreglass frame is very good but is best with a plastic rear screen - works well for reasonable money. They both look much the same when fitted. Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IANAREA Posted January 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 Thanks Roger thats great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Geko Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 Agree with Roger for the backlight but I find the Honeybourne polyester lid way easier to handle and fit than the original, not to mention the price tag... If I were to start from scratch I would probably go for the honeybourne one piece racing hardtop. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
