I have my spider web under my softtop creating a heat barrier. It works fantastic. The top is hot and radiates heat down, the spider web stops that heat and allows a bit of air to circulate causing a much cooler cab area. Windows are almost always out.
Hmmmm, maybe I can install the bikini over the Spider......
Highly recommend this since it’ll be hot
Right! This is why I'm asking. Last time I went I just had the bikini and that's what I used.
We were out during the heat dome in June. Was not too bad. Comfortable in the morning, real heat - pushing 100 - did not hit until late afternoon. You know, when you are laying on your back welding on @MagnumV8 ‘s shock mount…
What kind of heat are you expecting?

I have the same one, but I removed it to install my TrekTop.Mine is actually an Alien Shade full length, could not beat the amazon deal...
Anyone that does this: ever throw stuff between the mesh and the top for storage above the rear seats? Looks ideal for hoodies & soft goods. Might blow out of there, don't know unless I try (or someone else already has).

I really don’t like the door surrounds, but they’re a necessary evil, I guess.
EDIT: I went out and in 10 minutes had my own question answered. The bungees work fine. I doubt the mesh was any harder to install with the top & surrounds than it was without. I think I'm going to like it.

I haven't yet. I installed the bikini top over the Spider yesterday and will try this while in Moab.
Thinking about storing the windows up there when I’m out and expecting rain. Great idea.
Spiderweb will still let UV through, so expect to get some sun. I'm on team shaved head, so I still have to wear a hat for a good portion of the day. Hats make me hot, so at some level its about picking your poison.
