Kayline soft top for a 4Runner. $100 as it sits, that'll go to $150 if/when I get around to repairing the holes and the snaps.

All mounting goodies included - two bed rails and another that bolts along the back of the cab using the existing hard top bolts, and the crossbar assembly. The way it's set up now you'll need to drill a couple holes in the bed rail to fasten the crossbar, but bolting the crossbar assembly to the aluminum rails would eliminate that need.

What it's missing:
The snap rail that goes across the tailgate - this may turn up as I clean my garage, it's around here somewhere. I never installed it and never missed it.
The support struts that hold up the forward crossbar - I never had these, and never bothered to make any, it's easy enough to tie the forward crossbar to your roll bar.

What's broken:
It's got some small holes where I run bolts through it to attach my Thule bars to the roll bar. They're small enough that a vinyl repair kit would fix 'em, if you were inclined.
Several snaps are missing. If you have it on and off enough during the summer you'll end up having several of these go missing, and I always replaced them before the winter. I haven't done it yet this winter, but it's easy to do.
One of the zippers has a broken pulltab.

Bonus feature! This Kayline was never intended to have the sides rolled up, I've corrected that. I added d-rings to the edges so I could roll the sides up and strap them there, so the canvas straps and the metal pipe I used to make it a one-man operation will be included.

This soft top has been great for me, I love the freedom to run all summer without a top and not worry about wrestling the fiberglass any time it looks like rain. I ran this top year round with no worries - a little extra heater action counters the draft in the winter, and it's just awesome in the summer to be able to convert from open to bikini top to covered in 5 minutes or less. Even with the holes there's practically no leakage in the worst rain or snow, just don't take it through a car wash. Selling because I want to build my own, and what better time for that than with a new truck?
