Just sitting here refreshing this waiting for an announcement

Tomorrow morning after we get confirmation our supply of double pull zippers will be here.
We decided to use the double pull to make installation easier! A little detail but well worth it.

Love what you guys are doing here. And appreciate how well you have kept us updated. This question might be a little early and didn’t see it in other threads. But will this work on the Raptor with the two added support beams?
Thanks in advance!

Here for this question as well. Wasn’t answered in that other thread.

Yes we will have a Raptor version. The issues is getting our hands on one for the design work. We will redesign the rear portion to accommodate the extra C-pillar support.

If anyone is in or near Anaheim, California and would like to help with one let us know! We’ll make you a shade!

That was not a design objective but it came up in our review today. We only need to make a small change to allow it to be used with a duel top option.
Great question! We will look into it.

Were you able to make this update or will the tops still only work with their respective stock top option?

I watched the install video for your soft top version. I assume the hardtop version will also require the permanent install of a long velcro patch down the side of the roll bar? Love the look of your top, very tight and by far the best looking one yet. My use for a bimini will not be full time and that permanent install of long visible velcro is giving me pause. This is perfect for someone who doesn't plan on ever taking it off though.

Unfortunately they only work for their respective version.

Agreed. The velcro strips are unsightly but I would rather not drill the latches on the hardtop by going with gearshade.

Again 100% agree

so are you saying the hardtop version has zippers now? Can I change mine if so. I got soft top no pockets........ but have a hardtop

So the Hard top version would not work if I switched to the soft top?

Ok need to clarify. Our product is designed to stay on. Once installed you will never see the strips. The edge of the shade rolls over it.

Since side airbags are in the roll cage we had to get clever with the solution. Remember this is a combination of neodymium magnets and the hook and loop. It takes both to achieve our goal. They are expensive and we have been using them creatively for 8 years.

The shade looks and performs like no other, You mention Gearshade but it has a 3 inch gap at the front and I guarantee you it will not perform like ours on the highway even when you drill holes to use it. Even if you ultimately remove the Velcro you will never see it was ever there!

Hope this helps and here are some pics.

Yes you can just send an email to [email protected] and we can change it. You mentioned pockets? We don’t have pockets.
The hardtop version features access ports and zippers to reach the latches. Here is a picture before being installed.
