Double walls have a visible (very visible) seam that runs down the middle from front to back. Also, double walls bolt on from the bottom up into the top.

Single walls bolt on from the top down into the tub.

Double walls tend to spit in the area above the windshield. Singlewalls are easier to remove/install, especially if you have interior side panels.
