Alien Sunshade Install Instructions?

[Drummerfreak32]

I was wondering if anyone on here might have the instructions/diagram from the bungee placement on an Alien Sunshade rear cover. They have multiple videos for i stalling the front cover. I have a 2018 JL model, but im sure they are standard instructions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I drop the front windshield to do those bungees. It's also an easy way to clean said windshield.

If you don't feel like dropping the windshield, I found that packaging strapping scavenged from a bundle of lawn bags I had purchased from Home Depot worked well for threading the bungees between the roll bar and the windshield. It certainly worked better than the stupid paper thing the shade company provided for that purpose.

Here is an example of stuff I am talking about:

This. Once you mount the Alien, just leave it there. Mine's been there for almost 3 years. I go from HT to ST every summer. The rear freedom panel latches are tougher to get to than the front ones, but not too difficult. Just try to do it without stretching the shade too much to access them.

I also drop the windshield in the spring and fall when I change tops. You can get your windshield AMAZINGLY clean with it down! I spent $20 to get a tool (OEMTools 27276) to make pulling the wiper arms easy. PRO tip- use chalk to mark the arm and mounting stud to make lining them up simple when reinstalling. Dropping the windshield also has the added benefit of making sure your 4 top windshield bolts are tight.
