Hard Top Kit Inquiry

I think I saw brand new hard top kits new in the crate somewhere on here.
It looked like just two pieces that bolt together. The picture showed stacks of them in plywood flat crates. Has anyone here bought one of these and installed it? Was it as simple as it looks.

Thanks

I bought one, took it out of the crate, took pics and put it on E-bay. They come with hardware kits. Bolt em together and put em on. Pretty easy but it's a two man job.

I just put two on (by myself) and it is an OK job. They fit great, everything you need is in the crate.

One big problem I had was putting it on the A3. The shoulder seat belt upright is in the way of the bolts. No fun!

I have one left to do. Maybe I can find someone to help. ;) Cause an old guy climbing up the steps to the bed with the top piece on his back turtle style looks funny.

So how do I find them on GL for $500....? I did a search and found nothing.
Has anyone paid the shipping and how much was that. I'm in Colorado with a new A3. I'm also looking for a Gun Ring Flange kit for a 24in hole under the ring. Anyone here been down this road?

Thanks in advance.

What he (M1075) means is when they do come up on gl for auction they usually close out around $500

Edit: I've got a hard top on my M818 (with the original military provided rain catcher, I. E. dent from soldiers). If I wasnt swapping it to my bob project, I'd sell it in a hearthbeat for $500. I want a soft top for the M818.

If I am not mistaken I believe Memphis Equipment was advertising them for $1600. I dont remember for sure. I not sure either if they are N.O.S. or a reproduction either???? I have seen the one piece fiberglass tops for 500-700 new, but I dont like the looks of them at all.
I guess one would be better than no top at all I guess.
