That top is cool. Taking the hard top off a 4dr is such a pain due to its weight and general awkwardness. I had no idea RealTruck had bought up so many other companies.
@wayalife11 ай бұрын
The top really is super cool and to be able to take it apart piece by piece before taking off the actual top is a game changer. And really, you could just leave it on as a kid of safari top if you wanted and I think it would still look cool. As far as RealTruck goes, they were Truck Hero up until the early part of the year but yeah, they've gobbled up a TON of companies.

@@wayalifePlease ask HardTop if a built-in low profile LED lightbar CAN BE BUILT INTO the front upper part of the hard top canopy that has user selectable brightness levels from 2000 lumens all the way up to 100,000 lumens. Since many states require light bars to be covered when driving on the highway or in urban areas, make the lightbar retractable into its own protective housing OR make a moving cover or set of louvres that move into place covering the lights when the user presses an in-cabin button or selects a NAV screen menu option. Allow for both spotlight and floodlight options at all lumens/brightness levels. While you are at it, add the option of adding in LEDS that output bright white, safety yellow, pilot car orange, infrared (i.e for long range nightvision use!), Xenon Purple and Uultraviolet Blacklight for worksite forensics or campsite party use and night-time red which preserves human vision at night while still illuminating the area. Also allow for user-uploaded moving, flashing, solid color and multi-color lighting patterns that move or dance around such as moving or flashing arrows, flashing or moving text messages and other user-defined or preset lighting patterns. Please copy this text and send this feature request to HardTop to put into their lineup!
