I'm back and forth between the soft top and MIC hard top. Does anyone have info on how it will open & operate? I loved the operation of my 2018 JL Unlimited and am hoping Ford will be as good or even improve on the ease of operation.

Made by Best Top, so I'm assuming much like JL's.

It's not though. Webasto is making both hard and the standard soft tops. A video is really needed....
I doubt that....where did you learn that?

There is a Webasto employee who posts on here that has confirmed it multiple times. Where did you get your info?

Does the rear of the soft top open above the tailgate? I was fiddling around with a wrangler soft top and for the life of my, couldnt figure out how to open the rear. It seemed like it either didnt open (doubtful) or was more of a complicated operation that you wouldnt mess with it often on a regular basis.

Well, now we need to know more! If it isn't made by Best Top, we've NO assurance of how it works.

Yes, it appears both the rear side windows and back are removable. That's how you get the safari look...but we don't know how they'll work since I've just learned they're NOT being made by Best Top :( , so who knows? If like the older JK, horrible. Like the JL's, it'd be great.

Yeah, and add in that Webasto broke ground on a new 300K SqFt factory in Plymouth last year, replete with tax breaks for Webasto Roof Systems, seems likely that they are producing more than just the hard tops. It's still possible they aren't, we just don't know, and Ford isn't helping any with the paucity of info they've released on the soft top.
