Search for t-top electronics boxes. You can use it for whatever you want.

Don't puke over the prices. I'm with Scott - Make one.

FWIW, Im making a radar arch because it will cost me about $100 to make vs $4500 to buy.

making a t-top box would be about $50 (mostly the cost of gel and resin)

Keep an eye on eBay. There are several people/companies that buy excess inventory from boat builders.

Found an OEM rocket launcher for my hardtop for 1/2 what I was quoted by OEM

To answer your question www. defender.com has them -Todd lightweight T-Top Electronics/Radio Box item # 252601 95-1925 and the larger one is 252606 88-1924 ............ 350.00 and 380.00 might find them on Ebay etc for less or google and see what you come up with. You never mentioned what your budget was or if you cared,maybe you want a professional looking box ,this is it.

If its just for portable items, not needed for electronics, or doesn't need to be waterproof...


Us a small cargo net with pockets.

If your going that route you may want to visit some kitchen departments in the big box stores. Tupperware and products like that are waterproof,lightweight,cheap,airtight,float and easy to secure to hardtops with bungees,zip ties etc.
