Yeah it can be done. I dont know the full details of the vitara fittings but if its like an SJ there may be a few clips and seals to swap over.

You'll need the soft top (natch) and the soft top frame too.
If it ticks over...leave it

Should be a few on ebay. I might still have an old frame if you are nearby...
