Bestop teaser concept: folding soft cover / shell / topper for Gladiator bed

[Gren71]

@Bestop

any chance we could get some pictures of the mounting hardware? Im curious what the major differences between this and the soft topper are. I can kinda see it on the bestop website, but there is not a zoom in function on the site which makes it rather hard.

From the images for other trucks, there is a frame on top of bed caps, like for a tonneau cover, and the arms attach and pivot there.
I have asked a couple of times if that is how the Gladiator version is going to be and received no response.

I too, would love to see a close up, or even an in depth video of this too. I have a Softtopper, and for as much as I love it, I really dislike the way it terminates at the tailgate with the velcro. And as previously mentioned, I'd love to see some real world photos of it mounted on a Soft Top equipped JT.

yea I see that on the soft topper. Im just wondering if the bestop version is more streamlined or not. And if it makes it worth while to spend the extra $190 or so on the matching tonneau.

Do the fabric options correlate with the different soft-tops (regular vs. premium soft top), or would twill be the closest match for either one?

Great question! The Twill would correlate to Premium. The Black Diamond would match the standard soft top.

Do you have any pics or renders with a Softtop to share? I would love to order one if I knew how it would look on my Rubi with the premium softtop.

I don't have any photos with a soft top yet, hopefully someone here will be able to share soon!

Here is a video of the Supertop for Truck, it's just not on a Gladiator. We'll have more videos coming in the future as well.

From the pictures, it doesn't look like it does. I see a clamp in back. I hope I am wrong.

@Bestop I assume this was carried over from another vehicles specs and doesn't apply here since we have a visible third brake light on the Gladiator?

"

• Functional third brake light (CHMSL) sewn into the top with wiring harness for quick electrical disconnect

yea, I saw that too. Im hoping that is just the rendering / current photo op set up.
