Reviews: Bestop Sunrider for Hardtops

I had a soft top for the past two years, and sold it to buy a hardtop because I wanted a quiet ride. I was skeptical about another soft top, but the sun rider is just as quiet as a hardtop. Install was super easy, took about 45 minutes by myself. I recently went on a weeklong four wheeling trip to Moab and it was great to be able to flip up the top for the nice days. I would highly recommend this product for someone who has a hard top but wants a soft top experience without having to remove the freedom panels on the trails.

I received this product prior to release to test it out and provide an unbiased review of it. It is really convenient for those that want to be topless all the time and have the security of a top. With this product you are able to go a short distance without worry about rain and storage. The freedom panels were always a hassle to store. With this top your able to unhook two levers and flip back and flip forward whenever you feel like it. Whether it is the highway, elements or security. Really great product and good quality.

I purchased this as a gift for Fathers Day for my husband. We installed it together and have enjoyed it every day since!

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.

Great quality and fit. Watertight after being out in a couple of good storms. While one person can install the 2nd person will be very helpful in getting the side frame bolts lined up and engaged,

Delivered when promised. Simple install. Excellent quality. Great Looks!

I was not sure if the purchase would be worth it for our JL but now I am thinking of getting one for our JK too. Simple to install except for one little wire took me longer than expected. Still simple once you figure it out.

Totally transforms the way you can use the tops. I don't have space being taken up in the back and drive with the top open 99%of the time. Sent two emails to my local store for the pickup and never got a response. Called on a whim and it happen to have just showed up. Quote on install was over $400 which was extreme for a sub 30 minute install. It was the lowest price I could find for the top they must make it up on install pricing though. Skipped it and did it myself super easy.

Easy install and a definite upgrade. Easy operation.

Dream come true. Pull up to car wash, top closes! Rolling out of car wash top opens. Never have to get out.

Awesome service - especially Caleb - he knows his gear and is always ready to give honest advice!

Great product! Easy install on my 2021 Bronco. Clear direction provided. Since I've never had a soft top, I was concerned about it possibly leaking. No need. Absolutely water tight.

Great product, installed easy even though I had to do it solo.

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!

A little pricey but totally worth it for the convenience! Did it mention that it hasn't leaked!? Would buy again.
