Hi guys, I’m new to the forum but not to the Jeep family. 2006,2010 and now I just bought a new hold over 2019 Sahara. So I’m going to bring up the question one more time just to be sure. In my area (Kelowna BC) on market place, is a 2015 new soft top for $600, with the exception of a few little parts this will fit my 2019.... correct?

The 19 is the new model so the parts are not interchangeable with the previous model. Like how your 06 parts won't fit the 10.

I bought a used 2009 4 door. Top was already replaced on it and has tension springs but the hardware must still 2009 because there is no way to anchor them. Is there some type of conversion kit? Top is in good shape so I prefer not replace it.

sounds like you're talking about the roll bar brackets. Look on quadratec and you should be able to buy 2 new brackets.

Thanks. I also saw something about strips or seals for the top of the doors. I’ll check to see if those are sold separately.

We have a 2014 Wrangler Sport Unlimited; We are going to trade it in for a 2018 Sahara Unlimited but we are unsure if the soft top is compatible. It’s a sunrider spring actuated top. Anyone know for sure or do you need more information?

Yes, your top will transfer directly over to your '18 JK as long as you have all the corresponding hardware. Just be sure you pull the brackets off the rear roll bars off the '14 before trading it in.
