Reviews
First, do as the instructions recommend and unfold it in the sun for half an hour or so. Place it on a sidewalk, driveway or patio for even extra heat. This will soften up the material and partially smooth out the fold creases. Next, start at the back rather than the front as the instructions state. Jeep Wrangler bikini top is allows a bit of give when stretching the bungees around the rear roll cage bars.
Some reviewers stated they could barely stretch the bungee cords and one even mentioned his broke while installing the back. My guess is they did the back last and had no slack to play with. Installing the back first solves this issue. Make sure the bungee wraps around so that the ball is behind the seat belt guide assembly attached to the roll bar (see pic below). You will have to stretch the bungee pretty hard but it isn't impossible. After attaching both rear sides the shade will be pulled back too far but that will be corrected next.
This next step is easiest with a second person helping. Pull the shade up and over the sound bar and towards the front visor area. Have your helper stand in the cargo bay and grab both sides of the shade that you just connected. He/she should pull it forward stretching those bungees and giving you some room to play with up front. Run a short bungee through the second eyelet from the edge. Pull, stretch and attach to the freedom panel "U" catch. Move to the other side and repeat same procedure. The middle portion has two eyelets close together.
Choose the one that is closest to that "U" catch and use it. It will be off center but still works without causing any folds or awkward positioning of the shade. (pics) These front three are designed to be off center from the "U" catches. They allow you to attach the freedom panels while keeping the cords off to the side and out of the way. Next move your way around the Jeep Wrangler bikini top and attach all the remaining bungees. They all go on tight but not difficult. Make sure you position all the balls in a manner that they are out of the way for visor operation and reinstalling Jeep Wrangler hard top or soft tops.
