The other option is get a Reimo LWB pop top from Germany and have it installed. Cole is now a Reimo distributor and he should be able to source a top from Germany. The existing cutout for the EVC is compatible with the Reimo top and you can simply have the new fiberglass top bolt on with new tent and very minimal mod to the strap/latching system. I have spoken to Reimo dealer nearme and he did extensive measurements to make sure the Reimo tops will work.
