My "new to me" 2020 JLU came with the Dual Top optional package. Thus I have a Mopar "square back" top for my Wrangler.

So, my question is as follows.

If I have my door surrounds & other small bits installd from the Mopar "square back" soft top, will any of the Bestop fast back model tops (NX or others) fit my current door surrounds?

If yes, I plan to be on the look out for one of those fastback tops.
If no, I will likely not buy a second top for my JLU.

Thanks in advance.

I have thought of a better way to ask my question, so here goes.

If I already have a mopar soft top (via "dual top group) from the factory, how easy will it be to toss on the fabric & frame of a fastback top, like an NX or others, from Bestop?

Or will I have to swap out nearly all of the door surrounds & other small pieces?


Based on owning & installing (1) a 1. Bestop NX Glide (for JKU) around 2018, (2) a Bestop Sunrider for Soft Top (for JT & JLU) aroud 2021, (3) plus now a factory Mopar top, I'm thinking they have a lot of shared parts.

Thanks in advance.

Soft top pics for attention.

You asked the question quite well in the first post. 👍 No need for clarification.

Paging @Bestop

(In case you weren't aware, they manufacture the OEM tops that are installed at Toledo. They should be able to answer your question directly.)

What do you think of those soft doors on your JLU? I've been curious about them myself.

Hey! The Trektop Glide and factory soft top have similar parts but its how the other hardware attaches to those similar parts that make them non-interchangeable unfortunately, so you would have to swap out all the hardware when switching from one top to another.
