Steve,

What model year Gladiator do you have?

We used to have a 21, but we swapped it out for our 24 Grand Cherokee for development of other products.

The 24+ Gladiators with the airbags have the exact same sport bar as the current 24+ Wrangler, which we currently own as a shop car.

If I remember correctly, the pre- refreshed Gladiators do not have the lower mounting points for the handle like the newer ones do in the rear.

If the demand is there for our product in the rear seats of the pre-24 models, we could absolutely look into a mounting system. We need to see what the sport bar looks like, and probably get our hands on one in the shop for a bit!

Everything you need is in the box—hardware and tools included. Thanks to our patented magnetic base, the handle holds itself in place while you simply screw it in using the provided tool. It’s truly a one-person, no-fuss install that takes about 30 seconds per side for anyone of any skill level. No wrestling with straps. No awkward overhead bolts. Whether your Jeep’s roof is on or off, installation is fast, easy and frustration-free.

The magnetic feature is nice, but that's quite some down leverage on just those 2 screws that are held on by stamped steel spring nuts.
