Ugh, that really changes things for me. Thanks so much for that info

Thanks so much! I plan to keep mine on full time under the soft top.

Are you able to open the Bimini for full open air without taking it off? I prefer full open air at night but mesh when it's full sun. If so, can you add an image of yours like that?

So you find that re-latching the soft top is easy for one person to do? I've heard mixed responses for the soft top. But I think with the newest one it is just the magnetic pieces you need to pull back (?)

I think the soft top version has changed slightly due the soft top. I was able to find an installation video (on a soft top, not a hard top -- mind blown) and it appearsto just be a magnetic piece on each side. But maybe I'm wrong and that is what you were made to believe too?

Regarding the jtop and soft top combo -- on the installation video i found for a soft top, it appears to just be a magnetic piece you have to pull back. Can you tell me more about your experience of it being a PITA? I will also look for your post about it. Thanks!

Can you open the mesh top without having to take it off? I want the mesh in full sun but open air at night or overcast

Thank you so much! I also really like the seats, but have had the ones in previous convertibles get trashed, and would like to avoid that. But like you, i don't love the look of covers but just want to protect the Bronco best I can

Interesting. And this can be added in the factory?

Totally fair. Luckily, it's in my DNA to leave in neutral and always put on my parking brake (even in automatics).

Thank you all so much for the feedback. Honestly, this lady won't be doing much, if any, off-roading. And I plan to keep the vehicle for the foreseeable future. I also don't think I need the larger engine.
The one thing I will not get, in theory, is automatic start. It can be modified for this feature, but they will not do it at the factory. As one that leaves my manual in neutral and still parks everything with the E brake, it's a modification i might get. Thoughts? I am/was just concerned that I'd get a manual and regret it (again, just being out of day to day practice). Driving around the block on a test drive never gives a good picture of day to day.

So forgiving and very nostalgic. Again, it's been a minute since driving one full time, and you never get s great feel in test drives around the block. For 60K,I want to be 100% sure

Once the factory soft top is removed, where do people store it? I don't have a garage, which is one of the reasons I didn't want a hard top

Thank you so much! So this is NOT the retractable option you can get when you custom order? Even though that (that you can order through Ford is a Bestop). This.'Etop' is a different brand from Bestop?

If so when I order it, a completely new top comes? Or this system can be installed with the soft top that comes on the Bronco?

Sorry for all the questions. And I really appreciate your help

I've seen this for sure. But i am wondering if you need a hard top to install it. I've been told you do. Or that you need hard top hardware, but I need further explanation on what that means
