The air bags are actually inside the front driver and passenger seats so taking the doors off isn't an issue. I originally thought they were going to be on the rollbars but was happy to hear that wasn't the case.

Sunrider front folds back to create an open area like the Freedom Hard Top. Regular soft top does nothing.

I should know this already and can probably look it up, but if you order an Unlimited with full doors, and the dual top option, does that come with a Sunrider soft top, or the standard soft top? I looked at the Jeep.com web site, and the dual top option states it includes the Freedom Top, and "an easy folding soft top".

The sunrider soft top comes standard on the 4-door JK. The 2-door Jk comes with the regular soft top but starting january or February the sunrider soft top will be an option.

Just to clarify...

The 'standard' top is only available on the 2 Door. The 4 Door either comes with a Sunrider Soft Top, A Freedom Hard Top, or Both.

Why can other companies do it?
Other companies don't offer as many vehicle options in the first place. Jeep has already outdone what other companies offer on a single make in a single model year. A 2 door and a four door with hard & soft top options. So they are lagging behind on a half door soft top option? Where's the FJ soft top?:rolleyes:
