Reviews for Bestop Header Bikini Top for 97-02 Jeep Wrangler TJ
I've had this top for about a week. It has held up well with no flapping even at 80 mph on the highway. It fits nicely when secured to the roll bars and also fits well when locked into the factory door surrounds.
I love this bikini top. This is the 4th or 5th one I have ordered from you. I just wish it was easier to get it to stay in the header track when trying to put it on by yourself.
I've had this header bikini top for 12 summers and it still looks and performs great. Hint: lay it in the sun for awhile before installing... it stretches better to allow for securing the side flaps into your door gutters. Excellent, tight fit -- no flapping even at highway speeds of 75+ MPH. It blocks 100% of the sun and rain for the cab. Never fear a rainy day again!
The windshield channel I got back then required some drilling (which wasn't fun) but it appears that this is no longer the case.
I tried getting this on my Jeep, and had a tough time fighting the channel. I'm gonna try again when it's warmer outside, and when I've got a helper. I expect once installed I'll be happy.
I bought the Bestop 51238-01 Header Windshield Channel for this and having a big issue. Cannot get the two to work together and mount properly. Could be me but I have done this stuff for years on other jeeps but this fit is terrible. I am going to speak with a Quadratec staff member soon to see if I bought incompatible pieces. If I can update this review later with a result I will. BUT the material and individual bikini top looks great, but just not installed yet.
