JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Trektop NX so sweet.

Pita to install if not at least 70. Installed last week in 60 weather. Couldn't get it all zipped up. But this weekends 80+ finally got it completely zipped. Great fit and fairly quiet. One thing I noticed was top header bar bangs when going down high way with sunrider opened. Need to get a Velcro strap to tie down. Only complain is there is no way to secure top to jeep when going completely topless like the oem soft top. Oem tailgate bar is only way to go.

Heads up but this top is on back order at most stores till the end of may. Took me a week to find a retailer that had one in stock.

My top is still in good shape, however it leaks a lot when it rains which results with sometimes puddles of water on the front floors.

I just got mine installed a couple of days ago. Took a couple of days of heat and stretching to get it to fit. Still have a bit of air noise at the front header. Looks like I will be out in a rain test tonight to see how leak proof it is.

Can someone post a few pics of the top with it as close to topless as it can get?

Another fan, though I've had a few challenges with mine.

It was so tight when I installed it the tongues on the side windows didn't fully engage the slots. In order to make it fit, I had to remove the rigid panels in the backs of the windows. Easier to install, not all that much looser and easier to roll up the windows. However, I then had and still have a few leaks from the back window even with the panels reinstalled.

That said, I love the look and flexibility.

Here are a couple pics in "safari" mode. It can be further folded back to expose the front 2 seats.

Got mine in yesterday! For all those who said their store has them on back order, call or PM David at Northridge4x4. He's got them in stock and cheaper than anywhere else.

So, I'm really curious as to why this thread full of positives on the Trektop NX got moved from the modified tech section, while the problem threads remain in modified? It is after all, an aftermarket part.

To the guys who have 2 drs and have the trektop:

How does the rear window compliment the rear seat headrests? Iv'e heard of some really jabbing into the top.

Thanks for any comments
