Mostly, the sunrider feature
Transforms you Jeeps appearance. Nice deep, dark black fabric look compared to the matte black diamond material top that comes standard. Twills the way to go. The Integrated Header Channel had a broken piece upon arrival but after contacting Quadratec they had a replacement to my home the very next day.
Took me about 4 hours to complete by myself only because of my OCD. Watch a few videos on installing this top before hand and pat yourself on the back for a good looking job afterwards.
This is an excellent top! I am super-picky and I found the quality to be equivalent to (or maybe better than) OEM parts. The material really is the same as a luxury car convertible top. I was looking for a soft top to serve as a bikini/safari top mostly but still have the flexibility to button all the way up on a rainy day if needed. It does the trick. wind noise is relatively low, even on the highway at 75 MPH. The quarter windows and back window panel are easy to remove and reinstall. The top also has some useful, zippered, storage pockets over the sun visors which I was not expecting. Great addition to having a hardtop.
Added this to my 2007 JKU. I bought this Jeep used and the original owner kept it in a garage most of the time and did not use the factory soft top much. The factory soft top was well worn anyway and seemed to have been stored in a way that it became bent and warped in the metal joint areas. That and 13 years of use/nonuse led to an extra loud wind noise when driving. It also leaked as I have never had a Jeep leak before.
Installed the new Bestop following the directions and I watched their video. Totally agree that placing the top in the sun to warm up is a great idea to aid installation. I would have not enjoyed doing this project on a cold day. Wind noise is back to reasonable/Jeep-like and it does not seem to leak at all.
Love the convenient Sunrider feature. This top does not come off the same way as a factory top but it would not take much work to remove it completely if desired. I expect this to last but I would buy it again should a new Jeep require it. Very pleased.
I love this top and the twill material BUT the installation.. Easily 3 hours Having an extra person to help will make it easier. The zippers are pretty nice too! This top fits so tight IF you install it correctly! 75 mph smooth and surprisingly quiet.
First of all........ Not sure what the previous review about the flapping is because this thing fits tighter than a drum in a good way. And if it's not a soft top jeep it's not a jeep!!! You can't compare it to a hard top. Secondly..... I replaced my old Trek top with this new one and WOW what a difference. Everything I hated about my last one was fixed right here with the new Trek-top. The sun-rider function works perfect. it fits better. it's quieter in every way... The windows are easier to take off. The rear tailgate bar fits better. SIMPLY BETTER all the way around. And the pockets above the visors are great for multiple reasons (Better storage and more material in the wind turbulence area for a quieter ride!!! I love this TOP!! One thing I do not like and is not shown in the pics is the big reflective BESTOP logo on the back of the roof section!!!!! In like four inch letters!! But other than that this thing is amazing. Buy it!!!!
My husband and I installed my new Bestop Trektop NX on my 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK this weekend. Have to agree with Gabriel L. that is was beneficial to view the YouTube videos more than once. We also referenced the video as we were reading the paper instructions. The total install time with both of us working together was about 2-1/2 hours; not bad at all.
Very happy with this product. Because Bestop makes Jeep factory soft tops, the fit was spot on. The fabric and framework are high quality, and I'm glad that I went with the twill. I'll submit a photo as well so you can see Betty styling in her new summer outfit.
Just installed this top very easy watched youtube video 3 times which I think helped greatly after watching the video it made installation instructions very easy to understand. Absolutely love the fit and finish. You can release the sunrider top at a red light in 11 seconds no lie so if mother nature is the mean thing that she has been in louisiana this summer you can dodge rainshowers like a pro. I find that this top is a great deal quieter than the old factory worn out top that I had. Much less wind noise hopefully it will keep the rain out like a new top should. I will update this review in a couple of months and let everyone know if it was worth the extra money.
