I bought those 15' x 7" OEM's from a forum member here 3 years ago. Gave $300 for them and there's a set on CL locally for like $800

Well after calling customer support, A.K.A. Randyzzz, the full soft top is on. He suggested that the top be a warm, 90* or so and it'd fit like a glove. Here are a few pictures of the process and the finished product.
This is not how it goes.......
After a call to Randyzzz and we're goo to go! Great dude!
So much more room that the 1/2 cab. I'm a short 6'-3" and that dang thing was claustrophobic. Much more room in the full top. Mounting rear F&T seat tonight for the dwarfs and installing their seat belts when the brown truck brings them. Hopefully in time to pick them up from school.

Wow, that turned out great!
I keep going back and forth as to what I want to do with my top. I really dig the pickup look... but I, too, am long-legged, and just a little bit more room would make me a lot more comfortable!
I'll be watching Kim Dawson's "extended cab" build pretty closely, when it comes time to build the cab!

Thx for the compliments. Roscoe1974 was nice enough to text me the locations of the factory captured nuts for mounting the back seat. Since I replaced my bed floor with one from Classic Enterprises there are no provisions for rear seat. I plan to locate it approximately where factory location was.

FYI-FYI the Classic Enterprise's bed floor DOES have 3 captured nuts for seat belt anchorage. I used these and set the F&T seat where I thought it should go and fastened her in. THE KIDS LOVE IT! I picked them up from school today and they both said to take the long way home, WIN for Dad! I was also requested to drop them off in the morning, 2 for 2! Here are the install pictures. Also think I'm going to dye my vinyl seats for now. LMS Seats has leather manual bucket seats for $300 a pair, that's about what the Bestop cheap seats are...........
Rear captured nut
Front F&T seat bracket thru bolt with oversized washed
more to come. putting some pieces up on the for sale thread

The kids love it “cause it’s so bright in here” with regards to the top.

It’s a work truck now.
A couple days after I got mine on the road for the first time I loaded up the bed with gardening supplies. It is a truck after all
