Aftermarket Soft top?

[Taxxed]

Please get rid of the man bun look!! It makes look like the owner was too lazy to take the top fully down & needs an option to fully retract into the box... I also don’t like the fact it sits on the top catching debris & bugs that will end up in your Jeep when the top is back on the closed position

My thoughts exactly!

Hey All,
What would you like to see in an aftermarket top option?

Just have it fold down over the roll bars like in the past?…anything other than stock. Ive been waiting for two years for any other option then stock that rests on top and cant fold down, The look is terrible. Thx Lee, and il be happy to buy your first variation. ?

I have this top on my Gladiator. I just uploaded a video about it on my youtube channel.

Thanks! Great intro. Bought one. Niccolo

Once you get it, let me know if you have any issues. I know that all parts aren't without their flaws and the experience is completely different from vehicle to vehicle. And I'd be curious to know what your experience is with the top and what issues you have with it. If any!

Yes, be glad to let you know. I have received it. I had been trying since late summer, but the US distributor was unable to ship for months. It came finally in two packages from Italy. I’m in the Outer Banks and won’t be putting it on until Spring, if I can make myself wait. I have not seen an installation video for Gladiator though. Have you? Niccolo

That's crazy? Did you get the tan or the black? I ordered mine back in the beginning of October and got it within 7 days. It was the black though. They said the tan was on backorder. I have not seen a video. The directions at first seemed like directions from IKEA. But once I really studied the directions, I was like "ahhhhhhh!" I guess I should have made a video.

I was on a waiting list and finally got word in Novembe. I got black - my Gladiator is the silver/aluminum color. I think it would be great for you to put out an installation video for the Gladiator. You are clear, easy to follow, and focused. It would be very helpful and very much appreciated.

Ok. I got the black as well. The black would look better on your jeep. You have a point. I have my hard top back on but I may pull the soft top back out and go through the install with tips and issues that I had while installing to look out for.

I 2nd that, interested to hear your thoughts. Probably going to spring for this as well unless there are issues.

That would be much appreciated, I’m sure.

That would be much appreciated, I’m sure.

Also, two questions. Can you leave the Suntop hardware on when you put back the hard top? And, I have a J-Top mesh top that fits under the hard top. Think it can stay on under the SunTop? If you know. Niccolo

Update. I installed mine today over the J-Top without issue.

Love this top. Easy on and off, intelligent design, easy to carry. Just what I need here in the OBX. Works with my JTop mesh and Forever Wave flag set up.
