Will an 07-09 soft top fit on a 2010?

I'm thinking about buying one and want to be completely sure.

Thanks,

i think the 07-08 only work on these years the 09-10 i believe are the same if in doubt look at quadratec.com they sale tops and sometimes you can tell by what they are listed as. the 09-10 front latches are different than 07-08 i think they are in a different place.

I have a 2008 soft top on my 2009 unlimited. I did have to modify the header a bit due to the footman loop relocation in 2009 though.

Not a great picture, but here is what I had to modify for the top to lay down properly:

So what will fit on a 08? A 07 and 09 top with their door surrounds will fit on my 08?

I think the new header (the metal TSB replacement one) only has 1 part number, so I'm assuming the footman loop cutout is enlarged in a way that it fits perfectly on any year. Therefore, if you didn't want to trim the plastic, you could install the new header.
I used a dremel for a nice clean cut - but yeah, the loop was causing some bowing - it wasn't snug before. So note that 07-08's won't fit perfectly on 09's...and I'm guessing on '10s then, unless they changed the loop yet again.

Default Have an 07 in an 10

I bought an 2007 top on craiglist for $400 and just installed on my 2010. Fits perfectly. I did try to flip the front section of top to expose front cab but had a problem. Not sure if design is differnet or if am just doing it incorrectly.
