I would avoid any tent that says it is OE made in Germany. I got a couple of these to install this spring. I have installed over 10 pop top tents over the years. The German ones were both too tight while the aftermarket US made ones were cheaper and easier to install since they allowed for a slightly looser fit. It is still taught just not super tight.

Another thing to think about is who is going to install it and where. It is not the easiest thing to do and have it turn out nice. If you are thinking about doing it yourself I would plan on doing it in the cooler months. It gets really hot up there.
