Does anyone have an idea as to how difficult it will be to put these on? I'm planning to go topless/doorless soon and wanna keep these (and the Freedom Panels) in the truck bed in case of rain.

super easy.. I had a set for my JKU... need to twist them a bit once in the hinges to get them to fit proper but easy install

Thanks man. Very excited. Any benefit to buying directly from Bestop vs. Quadratec or other reseller?

I bought mine from Quadratec.. I didnt see a reason to buy from Bestop as they seemed about the same as per price and I already had an account set up at Quadratec

Those are awesome. Not a fan of the price tag but I guess that’s what happens when it’s Bestop.

@Prepneck I'm not sure if they still do or not but Bestop used to offer discounts to forum members, just PM the Bestop member, if I remember it was 10%

Had these on my JKUR...very convenient. As already mentioned, you will most likely need to do some adjustment (aka bending) to get them to seal better. They are extremely noisy. I might even consider buying a set of just fronts for the Gladiator.

I had them on my JKU and loved them, I preordered the new ones for my JT and have them sitting in the basement now waiting for better weather but will likely run them until the weather gets cold again. I love being able to come out of work and just throw the doors in the back for my drive home. My set for the JKU were the Black Diamond (Vinyl-ish fabric) and the new ones I got for the JT are the Black Twill which match the soft top and tonneau exactly.

Also, as others have noted. They are very noisy at highway speeds and need quite a bit of fitting (ie, bending) to get them to seal properly but for me the convenience is worth it.

I just ordered a set this morning but unfortunately they are on back order from Bestop. The bonus for me is they will fit my gladiator or my wife's Rubicon JLU. They will offer some protection from branches as we off-road here in the southwest. I asked it there were any rebates on these when I called in this morning but there were not. The Twill ones have a lifetime guarantee according to the rep I spoke to at Bestop.

I Pre-Ordered back in October and finally got them towards the end of February.

I have these for our TJ. They are perfect for those spring and fall mornings where its chilly in the morning but amazing in the afternoon. Doors on for the ride to work. Pop the doors off real quick to drive home and just toss them in the back. in the case of the TJ, split them apart and all 4 pieces fit ferfectly between the back seat and tail gate. Noisey, YES, but no more than a cheap soft top. Kinda poor fit & finish, and at highway speeds they move around a lot. But I absolutely LOVE THEM. I wouldn't give them up for anything. The JK version fit a little bit better. and I am hopeful the JL/JT versions are even better still. I don't have a JT yet, but I am hopeful to have it by the end of the year. These are VERY HIGH on my purchase list. If I buy a JT with a hard top, these and the sunrider will likely be the first aftermarket items purchased.

My doors arrived yesterday via Fed Ex. I ordered them on the 9th, the fronts stated "This product is on backorder and will be available within 7 to 10 business days" and the backs stated "Pre-Order". Both the fronts and backs arrived yesterday on the 12th just 3 days after placing the order.
