I have a 97' Disco I and thoughts of making it a soft top have been coming to mind. Anyone done this before and any professional opinions/thoughts???

 

People have done it. Few look good, IMO.

 

There was a super clean disco on CL near me. The catch was a tree fell on the roof. I thought of just chopping off the roof but couldn't find a clean looking homemade soft top. I say go for it.

 

Long ago there was a YouTube video floating around of some guys in one. It looked a little odd, but to each his own I guess

 

There is a guy local named Scott who has a really built up Disco. His was featured in a magazine some place. Anyway he made it a soft top. I think it looks cool. I posted pics of it awhile ago.

 

I've only seen two non-buggy ones in person one was a DI by a guy named Robbie in VA I think and the other is a DII that used to be up in VA but is now owned by Luke at The Shop in GA. Both are very clean looking and nicely done.

 

Like this?

 

An example of a nice one on Discoweb

I wouldn't mind having this. No more issues with window regulators, or leaky sunroof.

 

That looks OK

 

British4x4 Centre in San Antonio had some pics on their site of one they did for a customer.

Bottom row, far right on the web page link below is a D1 soft top pictured.
