Reviews: Bestop Sailcloth Replace-a-Tops

It is a good top. Much better than a factory top

I got my top around 2:00 and had it completely installed by 4:00pm. This was my first time replacing a top on my 02 TJ. I read the instructions and watched the installation video on Best Tops website while I let the top warmup in the sun. I had it on and driving within an hour. It fits nice and snug. It is very quiet. I can hear my soundbar very well now. I really like the tinted windows. They definitely dress up the look of my TJ. They recommend using a shoehorn for the doors, but I was able to get them on relatively quickly. They are a tight fit, but not impossible to do. My TJ header has 14 screw holes and the top only had 8 cutouts. I installed all 14 screws by lining up the header holes and pulling the top tight as I screwed it down. I don't think I needed all 14, I just wanted all 14 in it. I have read other reviews that had complaints about wrinkling. I got mine very tight and have no wrinkles after letting it set in the sun for 1 day. All in all I would say it is well worth the money and I will definitely get another one when this one needs to be replaced.

EASY TO INSTALL - LOOKS GREAT

Nice!

Bought this top to replace the og top on my 01 Wrangler. It has been everything that it's advertised to be.

My first replacement top was a cheaper one and I got what I paid for. The top was loud and the zippers sucked. The top also faded fairly quickly. This new Best Top was more than double the price but what a difference. It is thicker, really quiet and makes me feel like my jeep is brand new again. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

I bought this top to replace my factory top on my 2012 Wrangler, which was old and falling apart. The Bestop soft top is of very good quality from what I can tell so far. The install was not too bad, and the instructions were fairly straightforward. It took me around 2 hours to get the old top removed and the new one installed, with a couple of brief rain showers happening after the old top was removed. The top fits very well and seems quieter than my original Mopar top when I am at highway speeds. Overall, I highly recommend this particular soft top to replace a factory top.

Looks outstanding, though it required all the strength I could muster to stretch it onto my TJ.

Top installed easily on my 2011 Wrangler four-door. Everything seemed to fit well and quality seems equal to factory top. So far so good! It did end up taking about 4 weeks to get. I assume this had to do with some shipping delays or manufacturing delays that had to do with covid.

Love this top! Replaced our oem top with this. Nice upgrade. Very quiet. Might even be less road noise than our hard top. I would recommend this top to anyone looking for an upgrade to their factory top, or just wanting to replace a worn out factory top. We couldn't be happier with our purchase.

Excellent quality and looks like it came from the Jeep factory. Fits tightly on 2000 TJ. Suggest installing in hot weather with two people for the first time until it stretches a little.

Absolutely perfect fit for my 2005 TJ, installation took less than 45 minutes

Makes the daily commute much more pleasant being quieter. Easy to take the top down on nice days and enjoy the weather!

I wasn't sure if I should go with a regular top from a company with lower pricing, or a good top from Bestop, or this more expensive sailcloth top by Bestop. I had bought a Bestop replace-a-top a few years ago for my '92 Wrangler, so I knew what quality I would get ....I'm glad I went with this one. The material is way heavier which would mean better durability. It is quieter just as advertised. It looks great and I know it will last a long long time....Spend the extra money and do it right, buy the Bestop sailcloth model. You won't be disappointed!!

This top is by far the best. Easy to install and looks great . Well worth the extra money. Should last for years. Quality top.

Gave my old Jeep a updated look. My 1999 Jeep was before tinted soft top windows. It is so quiet but I have not put her on the highway yet. The only reason it did not get five stars was it was work putting that cloth on my old frame. My girl looks Awesome!
