Install evidence

Bestop source wording says: Gas-assist struts make it one-hand operation, exactly like a factory hardtop. Treat this as a configuration-sensitive top install. Verify 2-door vs 4-door, model generation, soft-top family, window kit, bow/frame or factory hardware path, header/channel needs, and whether the customer wants professional install.

JEEP® Trektop® Pro Hybrid Slantback Soft Top

2007-2018 JK Wrangler Tops Doors record from vendor catalog data. Status: unverified; verify vehicle-specific fitment before purchase.

They said it couldn't be done. Bestop did it. If you've been holding onto your hardtop because you need real rear glass - defroster, one-hand access, all-weather reliability - this is the top that removes that reason. The Trektop Pro Hybrid is the only jeep wrangler slant back soft top in the world with an industry-first hard rear glass hatch built in. Gas-assist struts make it one-hand operation, exactly like a factory hardtop. Integrated defroster connector for visibility in cold weather. Sliding glass side windows for additional ventilation. The Sunrider flip-back panel gives you open-air access from the front without removing anything. Remove side and rear panels and it becomes a Safari.
