I was getting ready to buy a BestTop, but stumbled on the Havoc tan top and I really think the tan top looks cool. But, I’ve read a lot of accounts saying they really don’t have the tops and in some cases, people have waited a year. Has anyone heard anything to indicate that this situation has...

I’m watching the installation video from BestTop. One of the first things he dies is to install “closeout films” at the top of each rear fender. These look like foam strips adhered with 2 sided tape. Do these need to be removed when putting the hard top back on?

OK, one more - I browsed the BestTop installation instructions. There are a lot of parts, but it looks pretty straight forward and the instructions look well written. Here’s the question: When it comes time to remove the soft top and put the hardtop back on, how much does the soft top need...

Thanks, let’s advance to round 2 Is the Ford Accessory Soft Top actually a BestTop? They’re both called TrekTop. https://www.ford.com/product/retractable-top-soft-twill-2-door-trektop-p2996847932 https://www.bestop.com/products/categories/trektops/?vid=169469

I spent a bunch of time looking on the forum to learn about soft top options for my ‘24 2 door. I’m piecing together info from a variety of posts but what I think I read is that if I had originally bought my Bronco with a soft top, the top would have been made by Webasto. But, if I order a...

I’m looking for a soft top for my 2024 2 door. I kind of stumbled upon the Havoc top and I was drawn in by the tan color. But, I can’t find and pictures of the Havoc top fully folded. Does anyone have the Havoc top? Do you like it? Got any pictures of it fully folded down? I’d sure appreciate...

I was going to see if I could find headlights from an Outer Banks or Badlands so I could have the halos on my Black Diamond. Is it a straight swap, or would I need to do more to make the halos work?

I get occasional email from Ford with accessory discounts. With summer coming, I’d like to get a soft top and let the dealer do the initial install at the promotion price. Is there any way to predict when the next offer might be?

I lowered my tire pressure by 5psi. It’s hard to tell if it’s real or imagined, but I think I noticed improved ride comfort, but I think I heard more tire noise. I would think that less pressure means the outer edges of the tire are in greater contact with the road, thus more noise.

I raised my seat which gave me a little more under-thigh support, so I can see how the SeatJackers could take it to the next level. It really seems the anything that provides thigh support and helps keep your butt planted in the back of the seat is a bonus.

My seats have the “marine” upholstery. It seems like that stuff doesn’t break in. I’ve only got 5k miles so far, so maybe with more time they’ll break in. That said, they don’t feel uncomfortable, it’s just that they transmit every irregularity in the road. So much so that if I ride over a...

What tires came on your OBX?

I raised the seat to get better under-thigh support and that “feels” better, but I’m up a little higher than I’d like. Seat jackets might be just the ticket for further improvement. My recent trip was long stretches of roads with expansion strips every 100 feet of so. Each bump was bone jarring...

Mine is a 2024

My current tires are General Grabber ATx. Inflated to 39 per the door label. How low can you go before the TPMS starts bitching?
