Description

The Bestop Sunrider for Hardtop is built for one purpose: giving Jeep hardtop owners open-air driving without the commitment of a full soft top conversion. Designed specifically for 2018–2026 Jeep Wrangler JL and JLU and 2020–2026 Jeep Gladiator JT, it installs in the front section of your hardtop opening and flips back in seconds from the driver's seat — no tools, no help required. This is a hardtop-only product. It takes the place of the factory Freedom Panel section above the front seats, giving you instant sky access while your rear hardtop panels stay exactly where they are. When the weather changes, flip it back forward in moments and you're covered. Installation is rated Level 1 — Easy. No drilling, no modifications. The fabric-on-frame assembly arrives pre-installed, and door rails are included. Most installations take about 30 minutes with basic hand tools. Every box includes the complete pre- installed fabric-on-frame assembly, front door rails, and full installation instructions. No additional hardware is required for installation. Bestop has been engineering Jeep-specific tops and accessories for over 70 years. The Sunrider for Hardtop is backed by a 3-year warranty and carries Bestop's standard of precision fit for the JL and JT platforms. Designed in the USA, manufactured in Mexico.

  • Awesome
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Diamond
Easy to install had a friend do it for me. He advised me not to run it thru the car wash it could tear it up. He said might be a little loud but I tested that theory. Not bad at all, no leaks. Good price I love it. Easy to open flip those 2 handles

  • If you love to go topless this item is for you!!
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Diamond
This top is wonderful, just what I was looking for. Install was not to bad, it said 30 minutes and that was about right. The fit is pretty good although it seem the drivers side is a tighter fit than the passenger side. Lots of air nose from the passenger side and the latch doesn’t seem as tight. It’s pretty easy to use although the metal handle used to push it back get very HOT from the sun. I had to buy a little oven mitt to use to open it. The color match and fit looks factory. ... show more

  • Very poor fitment, no response from manufacturer, but very easy installation.
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Diamond
I ordered one top, and it did not fit correctly. The entire frame was not straight. Amazon sent me a replacement because BesTop did not return any of my emails or phone calls. The second top I got installed much easier as the frame was straight, but the rear section was either manufactured incorrectly, or the top was damaged in shipping. I sent both of them back to amazon to get my money back. I love the idea of the top, but they are either doing a very poor job of manufacturing the top, or a bad job of packing them and they get damaged. As of the day I am writing this review, it has been more than a month and no replies from emails or voicemails to BesTop. They may not be in business anymore. If someone else was selling a top like this for my Gladiator, I would order it now. Edit: It is now April of 2021, nine months after I had the last issue with this top and I have had no phone calls or emails from BesTop. They still offer this Sunrider top on their website. I don't know why they still sell a product that they won't support or even respond to inquiries about. Edit 2: It is now October of 2021. Still not a single reply from voicemails left, or emails sent, from the manufacturer. Apparently there is no technical support or factory warranty given. Shame. I would love to have one of these tops that looked and worked like they say it will. ... show more

  • Loveeeeee this!!!!!
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Diamond
BEST TOP! If you’re like me who loves the open top down but the freedom top is too heavy and you never take it off, BUY this asap!! You won’t regret it! Get someone who knows general tools and buy them pizza to put this together. My husband did it in under an hour! My kids absolutely love it and the ease of it to get it on and off is amazing! I had a Sahara back in the day and this is sooo much easier!!! ... show more

  • Listed Video is different in some details. (another model?) Took an Hr to Install.
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Diamond
Video directions had a slight difference at the start. This one, had a 'barrel bolt' connectors holding the wire to the frame. The video shows what looks like a Better/Easier Z-Bend connector. Took me longer to figure out how to get the barrel bolt screwed in, and they direct to use lock-tite (included) I am not really thrilled with this rather flimsy connection. I will be keeping an eye on that part of the roof. The Middle Support Bracket, fit, but took me way too long to figure out. (Tip: have someone press down on the Roof as you slide in the bracket, its snug, but seems sturdy. Only 2 latches hold down the roof, vs the Hard Tops 2 Latches + the 4 "rotate catch" arms. So again, seems a bit flimsy. Your standard JEEP Tox WRENCH KIT is the right size for the bolts. :) I saw no mention of that in the docs. The docs mention a Torque wrench but no mention of the load? used 4, 80mm bolts and 2 of those screwed in look ugly as they are some 10mm too long. A protective cap over those 2 would look nicer. Noise with it OPEN going down the road was good, had a slight flapping at 40 MPH+. I do not plan on having it open at more than 40 or so. If they had things pre- assembled from the factory (6 bolts) , it would have been like a 10 Min Install. Instead of an Hour. (most of which was just figuring out how to put in 2 screws) It fit our Jeep Wrangler 2025 JLU. ... show more

  • Great addition to your Wrangler or Gladiator 3 piece hard top.
Size: Sunrider for Hardtop Style: Black Diamond
Looks great and works well! I put it on myself, with only help lifting it up onto the roof. It did take a bit longer to assemble and install than I'd thot it would, but for a fairly handy 71 yr old woman, it went very well & I love the results! It lined up with the roofline very well and fits nice & snug. I haven't tested it yet for leakage yet, but the fabric looks very durable. I will update this review after it's first car wash or heavy rain. 👍 ... show more
