Wayoflife,

Do you know much about the Flexatrunk? I am more curious about how secure it is. I know it isn't going to be as strong as the tuffy trunk but is the flexatrunk even secure?

Thanks,
Bryan

Here's some info. You can always E-mail Bestop with questions since these aren't out yet. I'm looking into getting one, also.

Does the mesh top give you some relief from the sun? Would be a shame to block the sun completely with a solid bikini/safari top.

Yes, you get full security even if the rear seats are folded down. The only access you can get to it is through the tailgate which you can lock. See the pic below that I took from SEMA...



As mentioned, plastic may not be as "secure" as steel but it would still be a challenge to break into none the less and enough so to make this my pic over Tuffy.

As a matter of fact, it does and that was the whole idea behind this top. Essentially, its a scrim to screen out the sun

I have one on order right now. It is back ordered so I don't have a ship date yet.

I will take pics of the install once it comes in.

AJ,

I just got off the phone with Bestop. 800-845-3567.
The part # you want is 52581 (Safari version, Wranger Unlimited, O7). On page 21 of their catalog. Available in solid black
or khaki, or mesh. It covers both front and back seating areas.

Also, I was told, and will post elsewhere, that they are working
on all 4 element doors for the JK.
