Then yes I have the new redesigned top... mine is leaking pretty badly where the seam is but not as bad as yours is where the top of the doors meet the soft top. Lets hope for the best cause i love how the top looks... and im ok with the normal water like you said its a jeep but there is a little or a lot of water in the jeep when you allow it... not when you have a top on it to keep it protected... kinda defeats the purpose. Do us proud Bestop

Well please keep up apprised. 4wd.com is only a vendor for Bestop. Bestop is the warranty holder for the product and therefore would be the one to stand behind the warranty.

If your top is leaking that badly then it is definitely defective. I called Bestop when they sent me the wrong straps and they were very helpful. I'm betting they'll send you a new top, especially if you show them your pictures. I emailed them pictures of the straps they sent me at their request, so I know that is an option. Like I said, I have the four door version of the Trektop and it has never leaked ONCE, so I kwow they're not all like that. Just tell them that it's under warrantee and it is unacceptable and they should take care of you.

4wd said they handle it b/c I bought a lifetime warranty for the top from 4wd.com which is pretty wicked if you ask me, it was only like 49 bucks too! can't beat that.

I'm glad i don't have a four door, it sounds like the majority of all k problems are with the four door. I installed the trek top on my two door a couple of weeks ago and not a leak, i do have a bit of wind noise at the windshield corners but i just turn the radio up. I love the top, even planning to take it off for the rest of the week as the temps are supposed to get above zero.

It would be wonderful if anyone who has the Trek would post up a photo(s) of their top rolled up or back or however one opens up the Trek so we could see how it looks. I do like them.

the top rolls back. you can roll it as far as you want or as not so far as you want actually. like you can roll back to just open up the front section, or roll it back to open up both front and back seat sections.
The back window doesn't have anything to keep it rolled up like the stock tops, which was a bummer to me, but you can take the back window out, which is actually pretty involved since you have to undo the sails/cargo area windows (on a 4 door anyway) to slide the back window out the side.
Although the top looks awesome and sounds like a really good idea. i think the factory soft top drops faster and is more versatile then the trektop. if you remove it completely, you are stuck with it rolled up (and creasing your rear most windows) and it doesn't fit anywhere smoothly, like it's too wide to lay flat in the cargo area, unless you fold one of your seats down.
I just want my money back on it, and so far neither 4wd or Bestop has responded to my email with pictures... getting pissed over here.
