  • 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

  • Impressed!
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Twill
I’m honestly impressed. First off love this, best purchase. I went with the twill since vinyl isn’t known to withstand very well. It was super easy to install I followed the video and it was that easy. Overall I think 1 hour in total start to finish. Quality, it’s super durable and fits tight. As soon as it was installed I went right to the car wash. I didn’t want to wait weeks and get stuck with it if it couldn’t hold up. It did perfect in the car wash. No leaks! No moisture from the inside! Definitely heard the wind from the air blowing of the dryer it sounded loud but otherwise no issues and it dried almost immediately after coming out of the car wash. And I didn’t go anywhere fancy, we went to a regular car wash to see what it could really withstand. Genuinely happy with this purchase. Can’t wait to use it more! Super easy to open and close. There is a little bit of weight to it if you’re using one arm but it’s definitely doable and doesn’t slam down when you pull it forward. Great purchase, super happy! Strongly recommend if you’re looking for a replacement to the freedom panels. ... show more

  • Fits nicely and easy to install
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Diamond
I bought this as a gift for my wife and she loves it. She just did a 2k mile trip each way plus drove all over while she was there and even had a few storms in the desert and 1 in Chicago and it held up better than expected. It has a small rhythmic snapping sound on the highway but it's barely noticeable 100% recommend! ... 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

  • Instructions
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Twill
The assembling instructions were off. Connecting the cable should be listed after putting the sunrider together. Took about an hour and a half due to the extra step of undoing the cables because they didn’t line up properly. Other than that the Sunrider fit properly on the Wrangler, no leaks, tight seal and convenient. ... show more

  • 45 minute install. Great alternative for hard tops
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Twill
I’ve put these on several jeeps now and installations is pretty straight forward. Basic hand tools are needed. I prefer the twill model; I just think it’s quieter but I have nothing more than the old calibrated ear to scientifically to measure that.
