Video Transcript for XG Cargo Jeep Magne-lok Magnetic Sun Shade Review

Hi, everyone, Aiden here with etrailer.com, and today we're gonna be taking a look at the Magne-lok sunshade for your Jeep JL, JL Unlimited, and Jeep Gladiators from XG Cargo. That's gonna cover the front section of your Jeep, where you can remove those front two Freedom Panels and give you some access to fresh air while also shading you from the sun. Let's check it out. Up top here, you can see it's got pretty good coverage all along the edges and the front, there's no gaps or anything. There's a small gap here at the back, but that should never affect you in the driver or the passenger seat. It's got a nice, really strong-feeling material.

It's got good tension on there, nice UV resistance. I think this is gonna be a really nice addition for those summer drives. Maybe you're out camping, you wanna get some fresh air, it's gonna do a great job of that. Installation is really easy. It just buckles around the bars on your Jeep here.

So we've got two on either side of the driver's side and the passenger side. We've got two in the back and then we've got this magnetic strip in the front here with two posts that lock into these holes existing on our Jeep. So that's gonna overall, get a pretty solid hold on the sunshade overall. The one thing we wanted to know is how it actually handled when you're driving around. All right, so we're gonna take it out for a drive in the parking lot here, just to see if we hear any sort of rattling, any sort of weird noises.

It's a pretty cloudy day today, so not much sun to actually test out the shade, but it definitely seems like it would block a fair bit of that light coming through. As far as noise goes, I don't hear anything. It doesn't seem like it's really moving or anything on us at all. Everything's holding pretty still. The buckles are sounding just fine.

Those posts at the front seem like they're holding pretty well, too. Still really good tension on the whole thing, so that's really nice. But as we get to this section of the parking lot here, I can drive a little bit faster. Yeah, everything sounds fine. I think if you're going down the road at faster speeds, even if you're going off road or anything like that, I think it'd be fine, I mean, there's really not a lot of pieces to it besides the fabric and the buckles, so there's really not much there to make noise, but it's nice to know that the pieces that are there are staying in place really well. The buckles are holding, the straps are nice and sturdy, everything seems to work out really well. Another thing to consider is how it protects your Jeep. It's got these padded pieces here that go underneath the strap, so you don't have to worry about the bars getting damaged by those straps, any sort of abrasions or anything like that. And something else to kind of consider is that, that may have helped with the noise. So if there we're any plastic pieces coming in contact with metal, we've got that really thick pad there to dampen that sound and keep everything nice and quiet up there. And as you guys can see now, it's getting a little bit overcast out. So we don't have to completely uninstall this sunshade to put our hard top back on, to put the Freedom Panels back. All you got to do is undo that magnetic front of the shade, kind of fold it back, and then you can grab our Freedom Panels and get it set up. Now inside with the Freedom Panels back on, you do have to kind of reach your arm up and around the sunshade here to reach the latch that's kind of above the driver and passenger side head. But aside from that, everything's really easy to access. We've got the two upfront that are super easy to see here. And then the cutout that we mentioned earlier gives you great access for that lever in the back. My only complaint besides that one hard-to-reach one is that it does sag a little bit here in the middle. I think that's just the weight of the magnet strip there, kind of pulling it down. I will say, though, from this position here, it doesn't impede your view of the windshield or anything. So I don't think it's gonna ever be a hazard when you're driving, just more of a mild inconvenience that it does look like that when it's not in use. So overall, I really like the sunshade. I think it's gonna be a really great solution to giving you that open air feeling in your Jeep, but giving you some extra protection from the sun. I think overall it's really unobtrusive, the thick padding and everything here doesn't conflict with the Freedom Panels or the door closing at all. All the latches are still pretty easy to access when you are in here looking to put the top back on. I like that you don't have to remove the shade whenever you put the Freedom Panels back on, you can keep it ready to go so if there is a nice day all of a sudden, you can just get the panels off, get the shade folded back over, and you're good to go. The only thing that I think is a little bit obtrusive is that sag here in the middle with the magnet. I think that'd be a pretty easy fix, though. I probably would just pick up a magnet with some adhesive backing, stick it to the Freedom Panel there and give it something to stick to. Since it does have that magnet strip in there, I think that'd be a pretty easy fix and it would give you a lot of extra headroom because when it is down like this, if I was leaning forward to grab something out of here, so about six feet tall, my head does hit, not to mention if you have your hair spiked up or something, that just kind of would get in the way. But aside from that one little thing, I think it's gonna be a really nice addition to your Jeep. Again, my name's Aiden here at etrailer.com. Thanks for watching..

I bought this for use with my Bestop Sunrider for Hardtop.
Just installed - and it took some work to get it lined up - also needed to do a few extra steps with the Sunrider, But so far it performs as advertised.

Turns out it was not designed to work with the sunder no wonder I had such a time getting it aligned so I had to uninstall. Still the quality is great, and If I only had Freedom Tops, I definitely would have kept it on.

It’s a great sun shade. Well made and an easy install. Watch the video on the XG Cargo site. It’s easier to follow than the included instructions. It really is about a 20 minute install! Cuts the glare and some wind noise. I drove around all day and it held tight. It’s easy to get the Freedom Panels in and off once it’s installed.

Like the magnetic strip to hold the sun shade down without having to manipulate the windshield. Also appreciate the fact it can be left on under the freedom panels on my Jeep - makes it super convenient for heading home on those sunny spring afternoons

Still loving it! Ive just left the sunshade on under the freedom panels. Theres about a 2 - 3 inch gap between the panels and the sun shade which is just big enough to reach through and release the levers holding the panel down. It takes me maybe 3 - 5 minutes in total to remove the panel and enjoy the sun!

@Chris Awesome, glad it's working good for you!

Returning the concept is good but you cannot leave it up an put your tops back on. All the roof clips except the ones behind each seat on the exterior are accessible. So a big fail in my opinion. They should have given you access to all the roof clips

Easy to install and looks good. The front of the shade is magnetic and flips backwards partway. It makes it easy to get to the freedom top. I appreciate the little details like the foam padding to protect the painted areas from rubbing of the plastic buckle parts. The synthetic leather around the edges also makes it more sturdy and looks complete.
