Video Transcript for Getting The Most From Your Bestop Supertop
Here, at etrailer, we've worked with a lot of Bestop accessories. Today, we're going to show you a few tips and tricks we've learned along the way. Today, we're working with a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Limited with an annex Supertop. A lot of these tips will apply to any Jeep-Bestop combination. This top has a sunroof, so if your top has a sunroof, the first thing you'll need to do is come down. You may need to lower the visor and pull it out of the way. Now, we'll need to pop the latch on both sides.
On some Jeeps, you may have a channel here that you my need to undo. This one doesn't have it, so we can go ahead and lift up our top. We're going to fold it back, and what we want to do is we want to guide our fabric back out of the way as well. So that both the front and back passengers can fully enjoy the sunroof feature, you want to make sure and guide the middle section of the fabric back as well when you're folding it down. So, what we can do is we can kind of pick up on that just a little bit and help that back. Just like that.
Now, tops with sunroofs come with these hook and loop straps, and in the instructions, it's not really clear what they're used for, but what they're used for is to hold the bow system down while we've got it in the sunroof position. Just like that; that way it doesn't flap in the wind. Now, with the sunroof down, if we'd like to get some more air flow in our Jeep, we can simply remove all the windows, or we can just open up the back window. Now, it features a roll up that we can do so we don't have to completely remove it. What we'll do is we'll open up our rear hatch here, then we're going to come over to our zipper, and unzip it all the way up to right about this position, right around where the seam is. Now, both sides have a zipper, so we're going to do the same thing on this side.
And once we've got it there, we'll go ahead and disengage our tailgate bar, and what we're going to do is we're going to roll it up. Once we get it rolled all the way up, we've got these elastic straps that are buttoned on to our frame that we can loop around our rear window, just like this. This is going to allow us to store it without completely removing it, so we don't have to worry about it getting scratched. Now, for the full Jeep experience, you're going to want to remove all of the windows in order to put the top down, so we'll start right back here with the rear window. We'll bring our first zipper on the left hand side here, which is going to be the driver's side, all the way down to where it was. We'll grab our other zipper, work our way back down, and then disconnect the zipper.
Once we do that, we can go ahead and place our rear window out of the way, and then we'll undo our side windows. Start by undoing the hook and loop, bringing up the zipper, working that around, and just pulling out the channel underneath. Now, our windows are just kind of hanging out back here. A great accessory to have would be the Bestop HOSS Window Storage Duffel bag to keep them safe and free of scratches. To continue lowering our top down, well need to disengage our sails here. We'll go ahead and pull down and pull this channel out from underneath the body here. We've found it easier to fold them up into the top just like this. That way everything folds nicely when the top is finally down. So, we'll repeat the same step on this side. Now, the final step before lowering our top is we need to disengage these cable guide latches, so we'll come up here, we'll push down, we'll pull that out of the way, and then we'll do it on that side. The easiest way to lower your top is to come back here from the back. Go ahead and start pulling down on it, and when you can, you want to go ahead and guide it down just like that. Put everything in a position, that way it folds nicely. As we're coming down, we'll pull our fabric top. That way, we can make sure that it folds nicely. Just like that. Now, we don't need to worry about tucking the top into the side here. It simply needs to lay right in front of the spare tire, so in order to close the tailgate, we'll need to make sure and lift up on our top like this, and we can bring that around, and then lay that back down. After you've enjoyed the ride, getting your top back up and be pretty easy, but there are a few tips I can throw in along the way. You may need a helping hand, but you can do it by yourself. So, the first thing we'll do is open our tailgate. We come back here, I'm going to kind of angle it up, and then I'm going to help it up like this, kind of guide it up as you go. Now, we'll come over here to the side. We'll open up our door. You want to be very careful not to smash your fingers, so we'll grab it from the outside like this. Then I'm going to guide my sunroof bow assembly, this portion right here, into my cable guide right here, and then it's going to snap in place. Once we get it there, we can simply push it up like that, guiding it in place, and then it's locked into the levers. Once we've got that locked into our cable guides, we can just guide the top up and then down on to the windshield. Just like that. Here on the inside, we've found it can be difficult to latch our soft top down to our Jeep, so what we do is if we can manage to get one side hooked in, then we'll go ahead and latch it completely down, which will help bring the top toward the windshield. Then we should be able to get our other latch really easy. For our sails, we'll go ahead and bring those back around. It can be kind of difficult to pull on them down to get them latched around the channel here. What you want to do is you'll bring your hand up top here at the rear of the bow and pull down as you tuck that in. Just like that. As you can see, it's really easy. You get everything tucked in and nice. Let's go ahead and grab our rear window. The trick here is to go ahead and put in your tailgate bar into your brackets, here at the rear. So we'll do that first. The reason why we put the tailgate bar in first is because if we didn't then it would have all the weight pulling down. It would be very difficult to attach the zipper. What we're going to do is we're going to go ahead and put that zipper in place, then we can kind of guide the window up as we're working our zipper around, making sure it doesn't get caught on anything. If the tension gets kind of tight over here, pretty simple, all we have to do is come down to our bar, and we can just kind of shift it over a little bit just to help relieve some of that tension, as you can see there. With that in place, we can go ahead and tuck our channels underneath our body here, and then we can move on to our side windows. For our side window, these can be extremely difficult to put in, especially in colder weather. What we're going to do is go ahead and open up our rear door here, and let's go ahead and start our zipper. Once we get that started, we're only going to zip it up about 4 to 6 inches, right about that position. That way, we can come around here and put the front of our channel in. So, we're going to bring our channel around, we're going to tuck that in and work our way down, and then we can go ahead and finish up zipping our window up. And by doing that channel first, that makes it way easier now that it's already in rather than having to get it in after we zip it up. We'll zip that all the way down, we'll come down to our channel here, tuck that underneath, and then we'll finish it off with our hook and loop, tucking that in as we go. And then we've got it. Now, with our top back up and in place, hopefully you found these tips useful. If you have anymore questions, our friendly customer service and our expert staff'd be happy to help you out. .

Review from a similar Bestop Supertop Tonneau Cover in Jeep Tops
Overall the product is working. It was a lot of instructions and took longer than the recommended 1 hour and half. I would recommend a two person team as well. Putting the tarp on, locking it in place and zipping it was no easy process. The written instruction was not clear and the labeling of the parts could have been simple (i.e driver side, passenger side etc.) Also I watched the video several times,the folding and open does not work that smoothly. Maybe because I have a 8 foot bed and not a 6 foot truck bed. Overall the product works and it's serving it purpose.

Review from a similar Bestop Supertop Tonneau Cover in Jeep Tops
Directions were terribly inaccurate, spacer needs to go in the rear clamp, set screws are a terrible fit due to burs and powder coat over the threads, rear bar had the seal installed backwards allowing water in. Spent most of the two hours deburring the holes drilled for the connectors. Material is very high quality but components are lacking. Not happy at all, should have been an hour install, I have the best top Jeep top and am very happy with it but this install was a mess. Needs improvement.

Review from a similar Bestop Supertop Tonneau Cover in Jeep Tops
I purchased the canvas "topper" for my 2014 Toyota Tacoma. I wanted something that was lighter than a conventional fiberglass topper. I also wanted something that i could move or remove easily to haul taller objects in the back (Motorcycles).
Installation was recommended for 1.5 hours. I took my time and did it alone, it was almost exactly 1.5 hours. If possible I recommend 2 people to install. The canvas is tight when new and some stretching was in order.
Once installed i spent the next day driving through rain for a total of 312 miles. No issues with leakage or no extra wind noise.
Overall I would give it a 10 out of 10. It exceeded my expectations.
Lastly e trailer made the transaction very smooth and delivered it super fast and in great shape. They continue to make me a lifetime customer.
Comments
Its been a year since i originally purchased my Best top cover for my Tacoma. Unfortunately I had a issue with the velcro lifting in the front. This caused it to billow and damaged the top. Etrailer and Best Top worked resolve the issue and replaced it with a new one that fit better and i have been using since Nov 6 months ago. I am happy to report it is even better than the first. I would definitely buy this again for my next truck. Both companies, etrailer and Best Top are the best!

Review from a similar Bestop Supertop Tonneau Cover in Jeep Tops
It’s a nice looking topper. But I had difficulty putting it together. The top poles with holes punched in them for quick release extensions had large burrs. I had to file out each hole. Also the back window took three people pulling on it to get it stretched enough to get to the passenger side zipper. I’m hoping that after time and some hot weather it will stretch and form better and be more user friendly.

Review from a similar Bestop Supertop Tonneau Cover in Jeep Tops
Prompt service, good product with straight forward instruction.
I bought this Toyota FJ40 with no top dint want to spin to much on a hard top but still needed a top, so I opted for a soft top, did my homework on the internet and came across ETRAILER.
I'm glad I found them, got the best deal and fast delivery. The good fit just made my truck look much better.

Hi Alex,Can you fold the top back like a convertible?Thanks-Kim
-- comment by: Kim - 03/11/2016Hello Kim,You can take the back window completely off and lift the side windows, but no the top dont fold down like a convertible.you can always take the complete top off, leave the frame on, it will take you 20 minutes.

Look great but very difficult to open/retract. Installer had a very hard time. It's a very tight fit, and one of the side panel zippers broke because of this. Is it possible to get a warranty repair on the zipper?

Yes, this Bestop Supertop does have a 1 year warranty. Ill send you the details!

Review from a similar Bestop Supertop Tonneau Cover in Jeep Tops
1970 Toyota Land Cruiser Good top, quick shipping and a fair price. Easy to install and looks good. The only drawback is the area above the doors where they meet the top leaks in the rain. (Using Bestop half-door uppers on Aqualu lower half-doors) Hate it looks so much like a Jeep but there aren't a lot to choose from.
Comments
During rain showers, the seal between the top of the soft door and the roof allows water to get in. The Velcro gives up easily around the support rod behind the doors and the rear bow is a bear to get into position. I sold the top and will be getting a Toyota reproduction top so my Land Cruiser looks less like a Jeep and more like a Land Cruiser.

Review from a similar Bestop Supertop Tonneau Cover in Jeep Tops
Where do I start. Let’s see. Manufacturer says place the rails 63 1/2 inches apart. My truck bed is 65 inches wide. So the rail hangs over the inside of the bed, half on the bed rails.
Every time fold down the top the center bar comes apart, no snap on the bar or on the canvas like the video shows.
J channels are worthless, they should have used snaps or full length zippers on the windows, I can’t see the j channels lasting any length of time. Slid the J channels together like the video shows. Let go and the window falls out. I spent over a hour trying to put in one window like they said, I gave up
Would I buy this again?. Absolutely not. It’s great concept but has some design flaws.
I have received a lot of compliments on the truck and top.
Little do they know it’s pretty much just for show. When it fails I will go fiberglass

Review from a similar Bestop Supertop Tonneau Cover in Jeep Tops
I’ve bought many of my trailer needs from etrailer over the years and never had any issue. This time around I purchased the Bestop Supertop for my Toyota Tacoma and I believe it will fulfill what I need, at least in the short term. The delivery by UPS was less than ideal as the box showed that it was not handled with care so I was close to possibly sending it back due to possible damage. After removing the items from the box and inspecting the pieces all seemed to be working order. Good things about the setup- Solid construction, designed well. Some screws and the slide in pieces for the middle of the structures were a hassle to fit, otherwise I was pleased with the materials. Cover material seems solid, and I agree with all other comments on this site about install the fabric cover in warm sunlight, makes it a lot easier. Not so good- Instructions were vague and not detailed well at all. One can figure this setup out fairly easily, but you might find yourself having to redo some steps. There were also some things that I figured out that were not in the instructions and had to work some trial and error situations to get pieces to work. I still have plans to go back and redo minor things to help fit the structure better but in the meantime, the top is in place and good to go. I would recommend this product to anyone interested but I would also suggest not installing this product just by the instructions provided alone. Online instructional videos seem to aid a bit, but would suggest those buying the product on this site to ask questions before setting up.

Review from a similar Bestop Supertop Tonneau Cover in Jeep Tops
Most is awesome. I love the windows. The one downfall is the bed rail rails are not strong at all they do bend I had to bolt the rails to the bed with 5 bolts on each side because they just kept bending up.
by: Frank10/24/2021
Review from a similar Bestop Supertop Tonneau Cover in Jeep Tops
The cover is nice. The back window closes very very poorly. It does not fit well and is not held in place at all....
The top is nice. Keeps out rain and snow nicely.
Removing the top for folding it away is awful. If you simply remove the four rail clamps, then it's very easy and quick... Whatever you do, don't unfold it in the cold or try to bend the plastic windows in the cold.... They crack...

Review from a similar Bestop Supertop Tonneau Cover in Jeep Tops
The quality of the bestop that was on my Jeep is why I chose to get one for my truck instead of the other brand. Etrailer was great to deal with. They matched a lower price that I had found online, and got the top shipped out immediately even late on a Friday afternoon. It showed up on Wednesday, earlier than predicted. Now for the top... I expected a great fit and easy installation. The rails and bows were simple, But the bed on my Dodge is wider at the front than the rear. The top is made for the narrower width, so the rails barely sit on top of the bedrails, exposing the stake pockets on the bed, and making the whole thing look goofy. Highly disappointing! The way side panels attach is another bad design. I expected a zipper across the top, like the jeep tops, but the plastic j channel set up was a real pain to keep in place. Im thinking maybe I should've ordered the Softtopper.

Review from a similar Bestop Supertop Tonneau Cover in Jeep Tops
Not a bad product once installed. Understand that the canvas will be VERY tight and letting the fabric relax in the sun will make things easier. Definitely needed an extra set of hands and took about 3 hours to complete the job. Would be awesome to have directions on the wiring for the 3rd brake light.
Comments
Third brake light wiring lowers the top to a rating of 3? I agree instructions would be beneficial. However, if I recall correctly, the manufacturer recommends professional installation. I had a difficult time figuring it out and Ive wired up many things in the past. As such I let Chevy take care of it for $50, it was worth the time and hassle.Awesome top! Bestop hits it out of the park with this one. eTrailer, got me my top in a few days, just in time for a move.

They shipped the product on time, but there were a lot of missing parts. There's no way to install it without all the hardware. Whoever shipped it didn't do a good job at all. Will have to return it, and HOPEFULLY get a full refund.

The instructions were wonderful and it made the installation very easy. The cover has proved itself on several of my camping trips, keeping my gear dry and clean. I should have ordered it sooner.

Review from a similar Bestop Supertop Tonneau Cover in Jeep Tops
Great top, allows for the versatility I require for transporting my stuff from point A to point B without the cost, additional weight or restriction of a hard top. Initial concerns regarding reduced visibility were laid to rest once installation was complete. As with a Jeep Soft Top, it is not recommended for security of high value items.
The only things preventing me from rating this product as excellent were the zippers on the passenger side panel being sown on upside down. $20 for a local seamstress to correct the issue.
Review of etrailer - product verified as in stock and order placed on Saturday of Memorial Day Weekend, product arrived on Wednesday. Great Customer Service from Katie in helping me determine what products I could order based on lead time and my timeline.

Review from a similar Bestop Supertop Tonneau Cover in Jeep Tops
My brother in law helped me install my Best Top shell. I would have never been able to install it myself. It was cold so the fabric was hard to stretch. Then loose in the warmth so the velcro sides came undone regularly. The Best Top had good and hard experiences. I have not yet tried to slide the top back. I wouldn't mind reinstalling it someday to see if I can get the entire shell to perform better. Bottom line, the Best Top provided for me and my pets in the time of need. It's a great idea.

Review from a similar Bestop Supertop Tonneau Cover in Jeep Tops
As a former jeep owner and the purchaser of multiple BestTop products I am quite disappointed with the quality of this top. The clamps are poorly shaped and slip off almost instantly every time. The snaps on the last bow don't line up properly. And, despite assembling in 90 degree temperatures with full sun, the parts won't stretch enough to close properly.
