Install notes and evidence

Bestop source wording says: When Jeep owners wanted a soft top jeep replacement that did more than the factory original, Bestop developed adjustable fold-back frame hardware and the BeltRail attachment system. 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.
