No one else does pop tops for Astros/Safari vans... it was my only option

Yup... it sounded like with the new sales mgr (Matt) that just maybe things would be better... I was proven wrong :( Matt has the heart to do things better, but he doesn't have the power.

WOW! Got the estimate... and here is the rest of the story! When I met with the contact person that Derek spoke with yesterday even he was not happy with Derek. Derek wanted a quote then and there and the guy would not give it to him without seeing my van (DUH) The contact was telling Derek...

The owner who wrote this article PM'd me and said I should post a link to their chapter 6... It is a summation of their experience with Colorado Camper Vans, there is more stuff buried in the other chapters, but chapter 6 shows a close call avoiding injury. This shows a constant pattern of...

Thanks Guys... AG is in my contact list... tomorrow with Derek's response on the gelcoat repairs will be a huge indicator of my next steps.

LOL... first place I posted... been getting a lot PM's from folks, poor work and customer service has been an on going problem for many.

UPDATE SO I went to the shop Derek picked out... well... (SMH) It's a company that specializes in making fiberglass Canoe molds, but they will not work on the dome lights etc, that is not what they do. SO I have more visits with other companies at this point.  I cannot share what was said...

UPDATE Derek finally gave me a contact name locally to repair and wet sand the gel coat... and to have my dome lights fixed and carpet re-glued. He did not address the bolt at the pivot point of the scissor action, bulb seal hole and why door is hitting it, over all alignment issue of the top...

Well... I should have heeded the warning about their work, and Derek's customer service or lack there of... Derek for the most part passes stuff off as acceptable, and even insinuated I did something to the top. I drove through 5 states to get there, paid for a flight back home and a return...

Nice curtain rods... and it helps to have nice flat metal panels to attach them too. My safari I have a mixture of rounded plastic cladding and odd shaped metal framing... it wasn't easy but I went with some old school adjustable thin metal rods/rails... and inverted them for a tight fit...

Just arrived at Colorado Camper Van from Sacramento... fairly uneventful trip, van made it  :D ... parts are coming off though   :-/ Both rubber strips on the running boards started coming off about 50 mile between each of them (boards will be coming off so not that big a deal, the noise as...

Heading to CCV for the top... dropping off on Monday morning WOOOOOOOT! :D
