Hi everyone, Adam, with etrailer.com. Today, we're going to be taking a look at Bestop's Trektop NX Glide Soft Top.So this soft top does come in a variety of colors. It's going to be also available for the two-door Jeep and also our unlimited, which is going to be four doors. Our color options will be blue, we have black, we have red, tan, and beige.So this is the sailcloth material option. As you can see, it's a little bit harder and more so kind of like a vinyl, but we also have our twill types and that's going to be a little bit thicker and a little bit softer, so this sailcloth is going to match your OEM look. We do have three different windows that come with our soft top and they are DOT compliant, and they come with a nice tinted finish.And with our tailgate bar, we don't have to worry about removing our back window.

We'll be able to grab whatever we need and close it. And as you can see, we have a nice weather strip, so we don't got to worry about water getting in there. So in order to have a decent amount of protection from the elements. We do have this section that folds over quite a bit more than this little ridge here. A lot of customers have complained about having water seeping through, but in all honesty, if you have this properly aligned there's not going to be any gaps for that water to find its way through.

Even with our door jam here, we don't really have much of any space for that water to get in there.There are some different orientations we can put this soft top in and I'll show you a couple right now. What we can do is take all the windows out and just by undoing that there, undoing this up top, and then just sliding it out. You can also do it on the sides.So this would be pretty cool for on those hot days you need a little bit more air inside your Jeep, but the sun's a little too hot for you. You can take off all the sides and cruise down the road like this. Bestop did include some cool bags for storage.

It's always a nice feature to have a little bit more compartments in your car. But if we wanted to do a sunroof version, what we got to do is take these out, and then on both sides are going to have this latch. It does hook to our OEM spots there, it is spring loaded so we can just flip that back, like so, and we've got a sunroof.So this is also pretty cool orientation to drive with. Wranglers usually don't come with sunroofs, especially with the soft tops. It definitely gives you the option and you can have a little bit of sun, but not all of it.

But you can also fold this back, like a complete convertible top. We are going to have two latches on the inside, in here. Pull those latches, it's going to release that. You're going to do that on the other side and then it's going to fold back like so. And we can fold this all the way back to basically have a convertible Jeep. So regardless of what your mood is, you have three different modes that you can drive with this soft top. If you do just want a little bit of sun and not as much wind, you can keep all the windows on and just pop open your sunroof.It's about start raining here, so I'm going to go ahead and lower this down. Get that there. Once we get that, you can get this latch hooked onto that rail, and we will have to take this out actually. And we're ready to go.A lot of customers have told us that this is an extremely quiet top compared to a lot of those denim cloth tops. It's always nice to have a soft top that's not going to be flapping around and making a bunch of noise when you're going down the road.we do have kind of an overcast day out, so this didn't really get too hot whenever we we're laying it out. I do suggest putting it out in the sun, maybe for an hour or two, just to kind of loosen it up. We we're wrestling with it for a little bit, but again, it never really loosened up and it will kind of get a little bit more easier as it stretches out over time. And if you get everything aligned up, how it's supposed to, you won't really have any issues with water or anything like that.Well guys, thanks for tuning in and taking a look at the Bestop Trektop NX Glide Soft Top.(silence).
