Sleeping Pad in the JL Unlimited

[jeremyjeep]

I wish they made something similar to this, but for the Wrangler. That way, could keep the heat off of the roof and windows.

When will your curtains arrive? Mine should be here later today.

Ditto. I’ll show you mine tomorrow if....

On the surface, your look nicer.

These curtains are great, plus the material looks durable. Fits the back side windows (all 6) perfectly. One panel (comes with 2) covers the entire back side window as well and is bunched up on the two front side windows. The back window will take 2 panels. So I will need to order 3 more sets to cover all windows except the front windshield. Only one complaint. The white cord that runs through it sticks out when you look at the vehicle. If it wasn't for that, it would look like completely blacked out windows from the outside. I'm sure they didn't have that in mind, so can't fault them on the cord color choice. So I need to find some black cord to replace it with. Here are the curtains again: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01J1AQ51W Also, in the front side windows, due to the angle, part of the window is still exposed, so luckily I anticipated that and ordered these to pull it over a bit to cover it. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06WRS71DQ

Hrrmm. Those seem nicer. These are okay fir the money. Less then $11. Yours just seem nicer. These don’t cover the whole rear panels because of their elastic toppers. Comes with a bag that fits two of them. Probably acceptable I guess. Are yours actually a fabric? I do like the heat reflecting exterior on these. Two more sets would black out the back entirely but I’m going to see how these do. Just need to block the morning sun.

Yes, they are cloth material. Good quality, stitched around the entire parameter. Do you block the windshield in camp mode? If yes, how?

Don’t know this will be a first. I figured I would just put these in the direction of the sun. I usually want to drag myself up to jump anyway. Unless the head is hurting.

Got the same ones you got today. Returned the other ones. The cloth ones are great.

How many sets did you order? I bought one set initially to check it out, then I re-ordered 3 more to cover all windows except the windshield. I cut down my prevision sun-shade fold out to fit since I couldn't find one that fits.

Just bought the one. I only want to block direct sunlight in my face as it comes up. If i'm camping I'm likely getting up to do some breakfast or getting up to skydive so I'm just trying to buy a little time, not a lot.

Nothing that a black sharpie can’t fix

And finally fitting and minor trimming with replacement of cover and adding a sheet. Fits great and is very comfortable. I can push the seats all the way back and it just bows up for driving. So, make the bed before leaving. Get there. Slide the seats forward. Drink beer. Go to bed. Very happy how this turned out.

looks good.. how tall are you? is anyone sleeping in theirs over 6’1”?

This topic makes me think my decision to get the wrangler wasn’t the best idea. The other option was the 4Runner but I’m hoping the top off and doors off experience this summer makes up for the lack of room when sleeping in the vehicle.

I’m curious to find out how others are sleeping in the back of their unlimiteds, especially couples.

The 4runner is good but its platform is going on 10 years right now. I'd wait for the new generation to come out before getting one at this point. It's already overdue for one, so should be coming out hopefully by 2020.

Won't work. Mounts to an upward lifting tailgate. Rightline makes one that can attach to a Wrangler hardtop: https://www.amazon.com/Rightline-Ge...D=41De10poYBL&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=detail
