    Default Insulating Hardtop

    I know Iv seen threads on different methods of insulating the hardtops, but I cant seem to locate any of them.
    For those that have done it, what did you use and how well do you like it?
    Thanks.

    There is also now a company that makes insulated panels for the JK hardtop. It is not a sponsored vendor so I can't provide too much detail. I ordered mine just yesterday. The company owner was very responsive (via email and phone) to answer my concerns about the velcro mounting holding up in the heat. He explained he has been in the upholstery business for years and has solved the problem via acrylic-based adhesive. Cost for a two-door JK is $209 (free shipping, no tax if outside CA).

    Feel free to private message me and I can give you further details.

    I'm considering getting the set from them too. I think we can post names just not links so it is hot head headliners. Good to know about the adhesive, I was wondering about that.

    Please post once you get it.

    I just emailed them to see if I can get the headliner color matched to a tan interior. I'll let you guys know what they say.
