  • Absolutely worth it. Excellent product.
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Twill
Precis: It's great, they updated it to get rid of the z-clip, it installs easily, and you'll love it. Excellent product. Full version: I'll keep this brief, because there are already tons of reviews for the Bestop Sunrider on multiple online sites. I bought one in July 2023 for my Jeep Wrangler JL. It works great, it looks great, and it seems well made. I can't really address durability, because it's brand new, but it appears to be made from the same high-quality plastic and fabric that Jeep uses and I think it will last. (I paid extra for the twill.) The installed product looks like it came from the factory. Key detail: they have revised the dreaded "z-hook" connection method to attach the tensioning cables during the installation. They replaced them with a loop (or "eye") and small threaded screws. The kit comes with Loctite to make sure the little screws don't come loose. It is very well thought-out, and I compliment Bestop for its continued attention to detail (and, presumably, customer feedback). I rated ease of install at 4 stars instead of 5, because the instructions are not entirely clear in some places. It is mostly a matter of terminology, I think. They obviously put effort into the instructions, but I don't think they're quite good enough. still, the actual install was straightforward if you're even slightly handy with a screwdriver. Anyone who would consider installing this top is capable of it. I did it solo, but if you're vertically-challenged you might want a partner, as the instructions suggest. That was longer than I intended. Great product. If you have the money, just buy it. You'll be happy. ... show more

  • Sweeeeeeeeet!
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Diamond
So easy to install! Brings back the joy of when I was 15 with a geo soft top lol. Always loved the flip up front but hated the soft top rear. I have a JLU diesel and live in Phoenix so keep that in mind while reading this. Same level of quiet as with the freedom top open or closed. Able to light a cigarette with it open at 45 mph. Extremely comfy and don't notice a difference with the ac on compared to hardtop. Got it on just in time for 104 degrees. It's a besttop. It's quality. They did change the z clips to screw ins which is an upgrade in my opinion and the directions were easy to follow concerning that part. The rest I did from memory of the video tutorial. Perfect fit. I love it and I think you will too. I park in a not so great place so soft top is not an option but this blends in and if someone is that motivated to steal they do have 2 bars to deal with. Worth the money, the first ride. ... show more

  • Say goodbye to your Freedom Panels
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Twill
I wish I could go naked, but since I live in an apartment complex and do not have a garage taking my Freedom Panels off has been the best I can do. The Freedom Panels are easy enough to remove and store in the back - but there have been times after a long day I lack the initiative to put them back on. And my neighborhood is not exactly crime-free so leaving my panels off overnight is a risk I shouldn't be taking. Also - the storage bag for my panels has seen better days and I have been considering buying a replacement for it. Then last week I spotted this product in an off-road supplier catalog. It was not on my radar to jump into a mod like this, but given how much I like the open air when I'm driving my Jeep on and off road it seemed like like a no-brainer. I mulled over the price, watched a few videos with installation instructions and reviews, and decided to go for it. I am glad I did. Installation was a snap. Took less than 30 minutes from start to finish. I went for the heavier and more expensive twill version. It looks great! I just returned from road testing it, and it seems to obscure the road noise as much as the panels did. Opening and closing the Sunrider is easy and can be done without leaving the driver's seat. Although I would not recommend messing with this while driving, you can flip it open while moving. However I tried closing it while going around 60 mph and the wind resistance is too strong to do that safely. The only thing I cannot vouch for first-hand is that it does not leak water but I would be very surprised if it did - it appears to fit tightly. I dropped off my Freedom Panels at our storage location. I won't need them anymore. And I have gained the space the panel bag took up in the back. Happy I made this purchase and I look forward to driving with the top open a lot more often. ... show more

  • Best Jeep accessory ever!
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Twill
Excellent quality, easy to install in spring and remove for winter. So easy to open and close and no tee tops in the back. I have opened and closed up to 30 mph but I don’t recommend that. It just takes one hand. Buy this before any other accessory!

  • Game Changer
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Twill
Does NOT leak! That is my #1 comment - even through drive through car washes and heavy rains. It is fairly easy to install - I am a woman was able to install with no assistance. I have a hard top and even though I have a newer model where the panels are lighter - they are still heavy. I am able to open this and close this with one hand. Has made my Jeep life so much more awesome. ... show more

  • Game changer
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Twill
I also purchased the windscreen that rolls out when needed. I really like this too as I don’t have to worry about storage if my tops when I want some fresh air. I was able to get one that was cheaper because of package damage “I didn’t see any” so I saved a few more bucks. Bottom line 1) super easy to install 2) great design 3) easy to operate 4) no more storage issues. ... show more

  • Excellent upgrade to go topless
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Twill
Very happy with the top. The pros are that it is super easy to flip open for an open top and close if it gets too cold. The only cons are it is louder when driving but mainly freeway and more noticeable from above. It is also colder in 35 degrees or less. Planning on leaving it on through the Winter as seals really well and no leaks and snow and water slide off. ... show more
