Bestop: Trektop NX Glide Soft Top for the 2007-2017 Jeep Wrangler. The Trektop consists of a new folding frame design that lets it function like a convertible top. The top folds behind the rear seat, providing an open air ride. The booth was filming volunteers to come up and take the NX Glide off.  Their average time ranged from 20 seconds to a minute.  A big selling point here is ease of conversion. The “topless” format has a protective screen for the roof if desired for sun protection.
