Bestop 5245335 Sunrider for Hardtop for 2007-2018 Wrangler JK 2-Door & Unlimited

Instant open air driving!
Best upgrade I’ve made to my 2015 Jeep Rubicon. Easy to install and works great. Flip two levers and boom – open air driving. It’s a little louder than the freedom panels, but not bad. Highly recommend!

Okay
Great top but can’t really handle heavy wind blown rain, causes leaks.

Took a chance, but had to return it. Shame on you Bestop!
I really wanted to love this product. I read every review (its great, go buy it, needs longer hardware, fit is not good, leaks water, etc).I took a chance to see what it was like. Install was kind of cumbersome. If the instructions were written better, then this would be a different story. I’ve been using Bestop products for nearly 20 years on my 94 YJ and they have been nothing but top notch.This sunrider top is definitely high quality and looks great. The convenience of unlatching and flipping the top back and not worrying about it bouncing of flying up at highway speeds (60-70mph) is super nice. Almost worth the cost of it alone. But it falls short in the fit/compatibility department.Unfortunately the fit is horrible, I tried re-seating the top several times. Even removed and reinstalled my whole hard top to make sure it wasn’t misaligned or something. Nothing changed the way it fit. The top stuck up about 1/2″ above the windshield line on either side so it just caught air on the highway and had some annoying wind noise. The rear of the top where theres a nice rubber gasket never sat flush to the hard top like it should have and ultimately leaked water.I contacted Bestop customer service and was basically told it works sine for most customers and Jeep basically changes seal designs over the years. I understand there are mfg changes, but Bestop should be able to at least provide an update or fix on how to make a product work with all Wranglers, especially if the claim its compatible with all 07-17 Wranglers. When I asked if there was a local installer that they recommended that I could take it to and have them look over the install to make sure I’m doing this right, the agents response was “I guess…..”. Pretty sad when I spent $700 for a top and they customer service doesnt really seem like they care.Basically I tried it and ended up returning it. I’ve lost my faith in Bestop. It used to be that anytime someone asked about tops or accessories for a Jeep I’d point them to Bestop. This left a sour taste in my mouth so I’ll need to revise my recommendations going forward.Also, be careful! This top actually tore my factory windshield header seal. I’m not happy about that. I can see what caused it on the sunrider. I’ve included pictures. You can see both the Left and Right side of the header seal is torn. Also you can see the nub or part of the plastic header on the sunrider that presses down on it and eventually tore it. I only had this top on for a week and it ruined the header seal. If this leaks water with my factory freedom panels on, I’ll be pissed and you can be sure I’ll be billing Bestop for the cost to repair it.

Superior Quality
As with all Bestop products, this is superior quality. Very tight fitment. Looks great!

Disfruto mucho de la vista de la naturaleza, compre el jeep para que tuviera un quema cocos grande y con este techo retractil lo puedo hacer en segundos, lo recomiendo !!

Love this. I have a hardtop only and though removing the panels is a breeze, it can be cumbersome and does take alot of room. Now, if it’s starts raining, I just pull over and flip it up and clip clip and you’re done… Delivery was very fast too (2 days before the estimate) via Purolator

c’était pour mon copain et il est satisfait
