Do you have a pic by any chance? This bimini top idea has been around for a while it would be nice to see the finished product.
Otherwise perhaps a Bimini Project is needed with a collection of brilliant minds to design something?

hi everyone
here is how i did it.
i used the front bar and clamps from the soft top frame.  i took that and my car 
to the top man (one of those guys mentioned at the end of one of the Indiana 
Jones films....), with my low roll bar in place.  he attached soft top material 
to the front bar as if for any convertible top.  then he stretched material to 
the roll bar, where he attached 8 or 10 snaps.  the top pulled to the bar 
nicely, and was open on all sides.  it was white.
i'm 6'3" and my seats were worn.  still i had to slouch quite a bit not to make 
a tent with my head as the post.  but it was WAY better than sitting directly in 
the socal sun.
i have since installed an autopower rollbar, and removed the windshield, hence 
all the "past-tense."  look for my old top on fergus' car sometime soon.
