Reviews: Bestop Sunrider for Hardtop (Black Twill) - 52454-17

Top is awesome.... install was a breeze.... The wife loves to be able to open and close while stopped at a red light....

We absolutely love the top. Went on pretty easily with two people to actually put it up on the roof. Love how quick and easy it is to be topless in seconds.

I've had this on my todo list for a couple years. It wasn't until I moved to TX that i realized I waited to long. LOL Took under an hour to install, beautifully engineered, very smooth operation, very high quality. The "z" cable ends were replaced with wire connector style attachments, but easy enough to figure out and complete. Highly recommended.

This is a great top for my Gladiator. I was told the twill was the way to go, and I am very happy with it. It was very easy to install after the first step, which took a few extra minutes, but once that is done, you never have to do it again. It was connecting the base to the top. It fits perfectly and I haven't had a leak. It is SO easy to open and close. Way better than having to take the panels off each time and put them somewhere. I should have bought one earlier.

The z-clips take some patience, but otherwise fairly easy install by one person. This is the second Sunrider we’ve purchased and installed on our own. We love it on our new Gladiator Mojave.

Easy to install. Love it so far. Simple to unlatch and flip back. More noise than freedom panels, but manageable.

This made all the difference to the ease of popping the top in seconds without have to store bulky panels. Surprisingly quiet and water tight.

Was supposed to be a 30 minute job Ha! But I did it!! 1 hour and 30 minutes later! I was sunning!! I'd give it 3 of 5 screwdrivers:) Very easy to use! Has not leaked at all, not even in the drive-thru carwash. Beats taking those heavy tops off and praying for no rain in the middle of my trip! No flapping noise are anything when driving. The customer service was 2nd to none when I went to the store to retrieve my order. Has a great warranty, about the same cost for the service department to put the top on, I opted to follow Bestop YouTube instructions, very easy to follow along, and sprung for the warranty! Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase! My Jeep looks great with the Bestop Sunrider!

I would give this a 5 star if it weren't for the off color. I wish bestop would have tried to match the shade of black that is the hardtop. Installing it was fairly simple using bestop's instructions. The top is easy to open and close. There's only a slight increase in wind noise, which is expected.

It is perfect for those that want the convince of opening and closing the top but currently I’m living in Colorado and the winds have been high recently the wind noise is pretty loud and sometimes makes loud flapping noise but other than that it is an excellent product and will be great for when I’m back in Texas able to open the top every drive

Pretty easy to install once you figure it out. Getting the wire into the channel properly was a bit of figuring out the first time. Only complaint is that when we washed the Jeep, there seemed to be a leak. Doesn't leak when it rains, so most likely from something coming at an odd angle. Really should be better sealed.
