Turn Off-Road Hardtop vs OEM Hardtop Comparison Video

[Glade Runner]

The badging is HORRIBLE.

Agreed. Makes the top a no go for me.

That looks like it was made to be there - looks great!

Is it just a 3D-ish sticker or what? Do they make any other countries flags… Like Canada?

5x3 metal vehicle emblem. Has 3m automotive tape on the backside. Got on Amazon for $8/pair. Not sure what other options there are. I'm leaving the TOR badging for now since it's not a big issue in person and would like them to get some press. In a month I'll probably stick them on permanently.

I ordered one and plan to tint the emblem. I would like TOR’s logo to be visible but not screaming.

Lol So I guess all these no badge ever folks rips the Ford logo off as well?

It's a small badge. It's not like Its across the roof of the top saying TURN OFF ROAD like the ID numbers of a police car. Guess those appliances in the house, better cover those names as well just to be safe.

Let TOR get some credit for the nice top they rolled out. If not, it's easily covered.

I think the logo in the glass is fine, the logo decal is over the top. If I were getting a TOR top I’d remove the decal, and get it filled and smoothed prior to painting the top.

Overall still a small price to pay on an outstanding top

Well, judging from this thread, the decal seems to be the most commented on complaint. In the grand scheme of things, that’s pretty amazing if that’s all there is to complain about. Now if mine gets delayed a third time I might start grumbling myself, but otherwise great job TOR.

My question was if the TOR top as designed today, was compatible with the BesTop sunrider? Seemed like a nice compromise to me.

The bestop sunrider does not fit out of the box. It bolts up just fine and follows the contours of the rear section but ther is about a 3/4" gap that needs to be filled between where it seals up to the OEM top and where our top sits. It's on the list of accessories to be developed to make some molding that will make it work but as of this moment it is not compatible.

I've had the top for 2 weeks now. Honestly, I don't even notice the badge. It's small enough.

Thanks for the details. Much appreciated.

Do you have any of the Rockwerkx accessories, like the tie downs, that mount to those thumb bolts? You've got me considering these now for my TOR top.

I'm assuming you recommend them... ? I don't plan on taking my hard top off much/ever, so they'd need to serve an additional purpose, other than just being easy on/off.

I have a 30" bungee I run across the back 2. Run it through the handles of shopping bags so they don't slide around and spill their contents. I also have a left over piece of closet rod I'm thinking of turning in to a light duty load rod to keep taller items up against the backs the seats. I do wish someone made a cargo net that you could hook to the RockWerkx and the load loops in the floor. I looked at a tail gate net and the Tacoma size one looks like it might works. I'm sure there are many more good ideas floating around in people's heads

That's a great idea for the bags. I don't plan on taking my hard top off too often (or ever - we'll see) so I know the key function of these being an easy on/off isn't for my purpose. But I like having some additional tie down points inside the cargo area, even if they are more for lighter duty stuff.

I'll take a ready to install top with company logos over a $7K box of DIY parts any day...

I watched the install video. Holy hell!! My best bud still has one on order. He's been talking to Todd and seriously thinking of switching. I was excited for him when ADV came out and was going to see how he liked it, but man I know he's going to ask for me to help him build this thing. This is definitely a case of beer difficulty!!! Might need some bourbon.

I would require a bottle of high-end bourbon before helping put that thing together, LOL

@Razorback any new updates on how the TOR top compares to the OEM MIC top now that you've been running both for a couple weeks now? Thank you.
