Mesh top that works with Soft AND Hard Tops?

[TahoeTexan]

I have a GearShade that I use with soft top and it's OK. I live in a high wind area and at freeway speeds it's sketchy.

I recently acquired a hard top so now I'm looking for an option that works with both soft and hard tops. I'm not interested in having two different mesh tops.

I understood JTops will have an option in the future.

Any recommendations for one that's available now?

Just installed our Gear Shade today for our hard top...It takes some maneuvering but it can be left on with the hard top.

Did you have to drill into the roll bar?

No.
Will make a video or some pics to show but we ordered the soft top version because didn’t want to drill into our hard top handles.
Just had to unclip a few areas and reach between top and gear shade to latch top.

Awesome, thanks. I have the soft top version installed now. I'm putting on my new hard top this weekend. I'll see if I can get them to work together.

I have the rough county mesh top and it works with both the hard and soft top. It does great at highway speeds, no noise and easy to put on and take off. I've been happy with it so far.

Have to ask… how’d you score a hardtop?

A lot of patience, searching, and a ton of luck. I found a guy that works for Ford and had purchased a SECOND one with plans to paint it, then ran out of time. It's brand new with the panels still in the boxes. $5500 without a trade for my soft top. I couldn't believe it. And I only had to drive 30 minutes to pick it up.

Good to know. They state theirs only works on soft top. Any modifications or difficult things required to remove the hard top?

We have a hard top but currently have a soft top on it so I honestly couldn’t tell you, but it has the slots in the mesh top to reach the handles so I don’t see why it wouldn’t work with both.
