Hey Loren,

This is the one that I have:

http://busdepot.com/details.jsp?partnumber=253070704OE

I'm not sure but am guessing that mine was dry rotted before I got it,
otherwise I'm not sure how it would be so weak and tearing so easily now, at
just over 3 years old.  The material is a bit thin so that may have
something to do with it?  I've learned to live with the front window setup
but the side zippers really aren't adequately sized in my opinion or
experience with them.  I'm not looking forward to replacing this top (again)
but it's already past time to do so.

Jonathan
