    I would like to mount the Bimini on the glass but I'm kind of worried it may damage the glass frame with the wind while boating on the lake, cause I don't have factory mounts. I would like to lay it straight back and have the 36, but then again the 36 might sit just as high on the glass as the 46 I have mounted on the base. So I don't know it's a catch 22

    Well they gave me full refund for the return and my 36 tall is on its way. I will post pics when I get it install Saturday. Also recovering the sundeck this weekend and heading out to the lake on Sunday.

    A lot better than that 54"! I was starting to wonder how tall you were (LoL)... Glad they took the 54 back with no fuss..... Says a lot for National Tops.

    So, I noticed your new top is 72" long. Is that long enough to cover your open cockpit area, or would long work better?

    Seems to cover pretty well. Shades from the windshield to most of the rear seat. Big enough for us. You can get under it from the sundeck. If it were longer you would have to maneuver a little bit under it coming on board.
