Tigertop™ – Installation Instructions
Install Paddle Handle on Door
The doors in this prod-
uct are designed only
for protection against
the elements. Do not rely on the doors to contain
occupants within the vehicle or to protect against
injury during an accident. Door handles are only
designed to aid in door closure. Door and handle
will not support a person's weight.
Locate the pre-cut "X" in the door panel where the
Paddle Handle will fit into the mounting plate on the
door frame. Fold the pre-cut fabric back and insert
the Paddle Handle into the mounting plate so that
the latch mechanism is inside of the vehicle and the
latch bolt is toward the rear of the door. Align the
four holes in the Paddle Handle Assembly with the
four holes in the mounting plate. Use a pointed tool
to punch four holes in the fabric to match the holes
in the Paddle Handle and the mounting plate. Insert
four #10-24 Truss Head Machine Screws from the
outside and secure them with #10-24 Locknuts.
Do not tighten the screws until all four are in place.
Trim the excess fabric around the Paddle Handle.
Repeat for both doors.

Install Doors on Vehicle
Hold the door at a 90° angle from the body of the
vehicle. Start the flap of fabric at the front of the
door into the bottom of the door channel. Slide the
door fabric up until you can work the Upper Door
Pivot into the Door Hinge. Continue sliding the door
up until the Lower Door Pivot can be slipped into
the hole in the bottom of the door opening on the
vehicle. Lower the door into the hole. Repeat this
procedure with the other door.
