Its very simple, either the people that are complaining have no mechanical abilities at all, or they are lazy. take your pick
Thanks for that info. Have you installed one of these before? I was a little curious about that. So, the only thing you need to install to the jeep is the door surrounds and the header right? It looks like the tailgate piece is just some velcro that sticks to the tailgate.

yes, thats basically it. The rear window will just velcro to the tailgate bar instead of the tailgate.

Cool. Do the side windows (not the back window, but the two back side windows) zip off like on the factory soft top? No biggie if they don't but it would be a plus if they do. Also, when you take the Trektop off will it fit easily in the rear cargo compartment? It would be nice to be able to store it back there. With the factory soft top you can't do that because of the frame....

like I mentioned on another post. I put some thick foam rubber insulation between the bottom of the header and the top of the windsheild header. it has cut down on the wind noise greatly
