Safari Straps *warrior* (2door) pics##
Installed the Safari Straps Warrior Net with the selected "narrow" side windows. I could not be more impressed with the quality of this product. Below are some shots of the materials included in the package along with some installed shots.
**IMPORTANT**
Any picture below is in no way ment to misrepresent Safari Straps product. Some pictures may show misuse of the product itself (i.e. strength testing). Understand that anything shown that is not advertised on the Safari Straps web site as being a function of normal use for this product is not reccomended by Safari Straps.
VVV-Below-VVV
*Do not attempt to stand or apply any weight to your Safari net. This was just to show the strength if the net itself. This is not a "Nack." If you want to stand on your cargo net, buy a nack.*
^^Above^^ My weight is 154LBS. focused on an area the size of my 2 feet. I did this several times before so the net was starting to sag in this pic. It does appear in this shot that my right foot is on the head rest but both feet are unsupported other than the net. The net made no sounds of stress. Though not reccomended by Safari Straps, I myself am 100% comfortable with strapping a few 20LB. bags on top.
^^above^^ Head room insn't a problem for me (5ft 7inch) and I have the hand cranking seat to lower myself if needed but I will say that you will lose some head room if you are taller.
^^above^^ There is a 3 inch gap at the front windshield to allow for clamping your soft top. Very easy!
^^above^^ I experienced very little change with visibility out the back and sides. I expected a lot less visibility but was very suprised at how un-obstructed my view was from all angles. This was another perk for being a daily driving vehicle.
Overall, the quality is 2nd to NONE! You really have to get one to understand that you really do get every pennys worth of what you paid for. It contains my dog with the top down and she's always there when I come out of the store.
Another perk is the added difficulty of breaking into the Jeep when a simple unzipping is usually all it takes. On the highway the only flapping sound we observed was from my own seat belts!!! There was no flapping what so ever from the warrior net!

Completely agreed, I love my warriors! The nack is fine for what it is, but I just couldn't see giving up rear visibility just to hold a little more weight. Not to mention, Hatch and Maral are genuinely awesome people and stand behind their product 110%. Highly recommended

The Rings allow your mounting straps a little flexibility when it comes to where they wrap around. If it's in a questionable area you can just slide the mounting strap around the ring a bit to mount it just where you want. One an awesome note, This thing fits PERFECT! I honestly could have been fooled for this being something that fit from the factory. Installation was too easy.

I'm right there with you. plus the shipping is $21 v.s. $150 for some others. Thats damn near half the cost of this entire kit just in shipping!
