Softtop conversion

Hello Gents,

I'm in the process of converting my Ninety CSW to a ragtop.

I've got most of the bits and waiting on delivery from Exmoor Trim now for the tilt, seat belt bar and hoop set.

I have a question about about the tub cappings as mine are past their best so need doing anyway. I see YRM do 2 separate listings, one for vans/pickups only which have the holes for the sticks to go into:


And ones listed as CSW only which don't have the holes:


So my question is should I be able to buy the van/pickup cappings and fit them to my CSW so I have the holes or do I need anything else?

And should my CSW come from the factory with holes or will they be without holes?

Should the holes be visible with the roof/sides still fitted if I remove the trim panels at the back to check?

I'm away from home at the moment so can't check until next weekend.

Any help appreciated!

Thanks,
Paul

With mine which is a van back those holes are used for attaching the van sides to the tub using parts 21-26 below. Mines a '88 tratter so don't know about newer models but those holes are clearly visible.

Thanks Marmaduke. Mine's an 87 so hopefully mine will be the same as yours

i converted my van to a soft top last year and the cappings had the 3 holes down either side. You cant actually fit the hoops without the holes as they sit inside, and around the holes.
