$150-$200 would be fair with clean windows and full functioning zippers.

Awesome. I have all the above. It’s more of a rare color also. I have never seen one like mine. I don’t know the color, but it’s like a dark charcoal color. Tinted windows also.
OP
Hahaha leave it in the house for a couple days and I’ll have a space heater going in the garage. Hopefully I won’t have to tug too hard. Watched the install video doesn’t look to bad. I hope the material is as nice as it looks.
I'd put the top on and then heat from inside the top before trying to button it up. It was over 100deg when I did mine and I still had a few issues. Funny thing is it stretched out really nice after the first week.
OP
I also found it best to leave the sunrider section up, do up all of the back windows and then your only struggle is to close the 2 sunrider clamps to the screen.
Will be interesting to see how difficult the traditional top fitment is compared to the NX in Twill. Enjoy

Well twill top arrived. Material is phenomenal, and it is very thick. Way nicer than the OEM top I have now. Back window has some intentions from the zippers from how it was rolled up, I’m prolly the only one that would have noticed. I purchased off of Amazon, and I received a quadratec invoice hahaha. Guys I swear I can’t get away from them. So I’ll call in the AM and see if I can get some cash back from the cosmetic defect. The sun might bring them out too...not sure. Pics to follow.

I didn’t get that far yet. Long night at work, and I was hoping somebody would just tell me lol. I’ll read through them later.
Good thing you don't live in California.
You're the guinea pig Twiller, you'll have to tell us.
OP
There’s somebody else on here that got the twill top years ago I think he said. But yea I might get to it this wknd. Have to see how hot I can get the garage.
Should go in the two rear corners of the soft top. Giving each left and right corner some rigidity. I could be wrong. But the last bestop top I bought for my YJ used them and that was new to me.

I found these on eBay. Looks like Mopar rock rails. You pick up these and the rear corner armor you would be set!
