Finally received Smittybilt soft top boot (review)
After waiting about a month for my backordered soft top boot, I finally received it this week.
I didn't have a problem waiting for it thinking maybe after hearing about some of the complaints about soft top boots in general that its possible maybe the company was tweaking the fit of the product.
Well, I thought I would throw my 2c in.
I did not have any problems installing the boot on the Jeep (70 *)
IMO it's a little loose in the corners and the corner tabs do not hug/fit snug. I also question the fit around the tailgate. The product seems a little short for the opening. I do like how it cleans up the trunk though and looks like it would help greatly in keeping the top clean, especially the inside of the top, seeing the top is down 95% of the time. In general I do like the look, but not the fit.
I should add that its a 2012 2 door.
I think I will call the vender, It might be returned.
Trying to up-load photos.

I would return it. I cant speak for Smittybilt or the Mopar one but the Rugged Ridge Soft top boot fits tight, and looks great. It also makes completely removing the soft top much easier having the top zipped up and secure.
