To add...
You ask how does it do with wind noise.
I'm not being malicious but I think you're trying to excuse your reason for going with the cheap top.
All TJ soft tops are damn similar on the hwy.
Timeline...
CJ's...
windshield channel that attaches with screws....(sucks)
Snaps on the sides and back (sucks) flap, flap, flap, flap
YJ's...
Windshield channel remains..screws in...
(Still sucks...even worse because headlights are square
)
Snaps are gone in place of a groove channel that fastens to the body with screws. (A much welcome change and 100x better than snaps. ) headlights still square and shitty
Flap, flap,
TJ's....
Screw down windshield channel gone in lieu of a latch system and a new header that bolts down to the windshield.
Much better design.
The #1 thing that changed the soft tops on Jeeps were the now integrated rails to the body. No more screw down channel.
The soft tops on a TJ are extremely quiet but thats the mounting design of it.
Flap only comes when window is lowered or cracked open on a hard door. Or zipped window down on the half doir
Which is quieter? Who cares. Both quiet enough.
Which one lasts two decades if you take care of it? The Bestop.
Which one fits perfectly ?
Bestop
Bestop...
There is no substitute
