Sunshade with Sunrider Question

[MikeJLURubi]

So I am ordering a Sunrider tomorrow; is there a sunshade that works best with it? That you can leave installed and able to open and close the Sunrider?

I use an Alien SunShade and it works great. There is plenty of room to get your hand between the shade and the Sunrider to open and close the latches. Only thing is you need to reach your arm out the window to flip the top open since you don't have a way to flip it back with the sunshade installed (if that makes sense). I am super happy with this setup.

Do they make a Alien especially for the JL or does the JK fit?

They make one for the JL. I bought it off Amazon.

I have the JTOPS full shade installed on both my Rubicon and Sport S and JT with the Bestop Sunrider.
-Hard top does not have to be removed but helps to just stick 2x4 under sides and front to install JTOPS shade.
-Install JTOPS shade with front flipped back about 12 in toward rear. Adjust JTOPS buckle system around the sport bar.
-Install Sunrider to replace the freedom panels.
- this will allow you to always open and close the sunrider from inside and the shade works great.

Bestop had a early video showing the sunrider with a built in retractable shade.

Bestop why not make this happen?

I use Dirty Dog sunshade. Had one in my JK and now the JLU. Love it and keep it on all the time. https://store.dirtydog4x4.com/

Anyone have an alien sunshade they are looking to sell - I like the look of the 2 piece?

Alien is 1000% compatible... Easy breezy 24/7!
