Not a complicated process to set up for installation, but after installing the Velcro, there is NO POSSIBLE WAY to install the headliners without removing the hardtop from the Jeep. The video is misleading. Removing the top is the only way to install these.
We're sorry you had issues with installation. You can definitely install the headliners without removing the top. We, along with many of our customers have been able to install the Hothead Headliners for the TJ without issue.
Installing the headliners w/o removing the top? I really wish it had been possible, but there was no way to do so. The front liner had to fit between the roll cage AND underneath the roll cage cross bar. Simply not possible in a Sahara Wrangler. Ditto the rear headliner; it just wouldn’t tuck between the roof and the speakers on the roll bar crossmember. Trust me - we tried for almost two hours. With the Velcro strips, it would be a nightmare to reposition. Fortunately, removing a Jeep hardtop is easy, so we got it in w/o issue. Definitely helped with road noise, and seems to help the cabin warm up faster in our 2° winter thus far. A good product. It just took a bit more work than the video suggested it would.
This is such a cool idea! Will definitely be ordering one for my TJ in the near future!
Thank you for your comment!
