Great solution for open driving and functional cargo space
I needed more cargo room on my 2-door, and the roof rack just made sense. However, I use the sunrider top quite frequently, but don't mess with the rear portion much, since I have a 2 year old that sits back there. This top gives the ability to have the cargo basket, the functional soft top, and feel a little more roomy inside.Without the cross-bars going up the back windows like the factory top, it makes it feel a little more roomy for the back seat. The way the bow holds up the top above the sound bar makes it feel like a little more headroom in the front, too. The tinted windows are great, and the top is nice and thick, and it seems a little quieter than the factory top (except with the basket on top).Now for some reasons for the 4-star rating:1. With the cargo basket on the rack, the top flaps insanely hard, creating a ton of noise.2. When it rains, water tends to pool up on the front, even though its' stretched as tight as I could get it.3. With the sunslider pushed back, the rear seems to sag a bit (especially in "savannah" configuration)4. On my 2008, I had to drill to match up the rear holes. There was no configuration that made the holes match up with the factory holes. I personally didn't mind, but it might be a deal-breaker for some. Not sure how it works for other years.To combat the first two issues, I've actually used the front bow from a Bestop 56922-17 Black Twill TrekTop NX Complete Frameless Replacement Soft Top with Sunrider® Sunroof Feature to keep it from sagging and flapping. They should put a bow up front. I'm considering doing this for the back as well, since I commonly have passengers back there.

Some issues but it's fixed I love it
Love the top it something different from everyone else the reason for taking stars is because I had to find a jk blog to find instructions and use YouTube also the first top I got had the zipper ends on opposite sides but after some talking with the manufacturer the problem was resolve by sending me an entire new top one thing is I highly recommend using lock tight on all boltsEdit March 2018After having this time almost 2 years and a few things braking but it was my fault but the manufacture replaced everything thing when I needed to but be careful durning cold weather after a duck hunt in 18 degrees my back window had frozen while it was dry and it cracked when I opened it but because of a minor issue the top had rugged ridge sent me and entire new top

The fit of the window panels is less than ideal.
It'll work, but I can't fully zip up the windows, and closing the tailgate will always close on the back window panel as the size is just wrong.
