Need a canopy for an 05 hilux dual cab. Is one better than the other or are they much of the same. Who can do a good deal on one in WA?
Cheers

Plenty of canopies on E-Bay, all much the same as far as quality goes, don't just look for a Hilux one as a lot of dual cab canopies fit other makes (ie) Hilux , Rodeo, Colorado are all the same size, work on measurements.
Cheers
Ross.

Can't give you any recommendation on who can do a good deal in WA as that kind of sounds to me like "cheapest solution" but for quality and functionality of purpose, I don't believe you could find anything better than the ARB canopy.

I have an ARB on my Hilux and I am very happy. Get one with lift up windows on three sides you wont be sorry. Also get a sliding window in the front and leave it open 5mm , it keeps the dust out of the canopy. A sliding window also allows you to clean the back window of your car.
Regards,
Peter

I've had a succession of canopies - tjm and arb seem to be getting better. Currently have a flexiglass which is the biggest piece of crap you'll ever see.
