Default Sun Screen Question

Thinking about getting a sunscreen for my 09 4 dr and would like to know which would be the better bang for the buck and thought what better way to find the info, then to ask Jeepers who actually use them.
The one offered by DirtyDog or the Spiderweb, also which model Spiderweb is what Im looking for?
During the pleasent days in So Cal, I only want to cover the front seats.
Thanks

Donnie!

Give SpiderWeb a call at 407-999-9094, and ask them what Model you'd need for your Unlimited. Their website shows their available products, but I only see one for the Unlimited, the SW1 JK-4D, and it's the 1-Piece that goes from the front to the back, almost to the Third Brakelight.

The SW2 or SW3 might work for you, if you ever decide to add something onto the back, but those two have the single piece for the front that you're looking for too.

Also, check out Dirtydog 4x4 here:

I currently have the 1-Piece SpiderWeb SW1 JK-2D, and love it. It works great! However, I'm going the route you are, and I'm going to buy a single piece for the front only. I'm going to try Dirtydog this time, just so I can compare the two Sun Shades. I've read reviews from Jeepers that have both tops, and they rave about both of them, and say it's a hard choice to pick one over the other.

FWIW, as far as Hwy Speeds go, I've had mine up over 70mph, and not a bit of flapping out of it. I hear the same goes for Dirtydog as well.

Best of Luck!

Cheers!
