Thank you. This helped me decide on my build. I am concerned about the noise factor and warmth in the winter, but seeing you install the soft top made me decide I don't want one. The one touch is my choice.

I have a SOT (got it in the winter last year). It’s not too noisy and it actually gets too hot with the heat on high with the top shut so the heat shouldn’t be an issue :)

Good luck with that! I have a Jeep Liberty with a "Sky Slider" roof. It's the first version of this. Jeep no longer services them and When (Not if) they break you either have to permanently seal it up or replace it with glass. I have found someone to work on it, but it's not the norm. The Liberty's Sky Slider, has leak issues and wind noise issues. I'm actually very surprised Jeep resurrected this idea, since they totally wrote off all the Liberty owners that have had problems with it. I wish you better luck with yours!

Last question for you, in summary, to successfully install a Sky One Touch the parts you need are roof assembly, rear driver and passenger side glass with frame, rear glass with frame, front header panels with wiring harness, front brackets and bolt guides that are unique to Sky One Touch. This will be going on a Jeep that currently has a hard top. I’m driving 10 hours to get this top from a salvage yard and want to make sure I have all necessary parts.

Thanks @evolvedjeepin for another fantastic mod and video tutorial. I have a hard 21 JLU Hard Top Sport Altitude. How would you compare the road noise from that of a Mopar Hard Top to a Sky One Touch? At the ned of the video you did mention plug and play… However, any need for a Tazer JL Mini to unlock these new mods?
@evolvedjeepin4 ай бұрын
The road noise is definitely a bit louder with the sky top because of the fabric top, but not that much. There is an aftermarket insulator that can buy but I haven't gotten around to that yet. Yeah it plug and play, the only thing that doesn't show up is a warning msg when I try and close the top above 50mph. If I use the tazer I could probably unlock that but I don't need it, as of right now it just stops.

Awesome video, was the Jeep you swapped the top with the same year? I can get a 2023 Sky One Touch to put on my 2019 JL but not sure if the wiring harnesses are the same. I have the part number for the wiring harness and it is only for a 2021-2023 Jeep JL. Curious to see what year his Jeep was and what year yours was.
@evolvedjeepin3 ай бұрын
Oh I have no clue what year his jeep was, I want to say his was newer than mine, which is a 2023. I would assume that a 2023 would be the same as 2019 as they only made changes in 2024.
@rodneyv26343 ай бұрын
Thanks for the quick response! I am driving 10 hours to pick one up from a 2023 that is being salvaged for parts and your video explains everything in detail and helped me request everything I need that they didn’t have quoted before (front header panels with wiring harness attached, brackets, quarter panels with glass and rear panel with glass). Dealership part departments couldn’t even tell me everything I would need. Much appreciation for such a thorough video.

I love the sky top, when I had a soft top I always had it down but it was a pain to put back up. But the sky top is so easy and I get the same open top affect. For the wheel and tires I am currently running 38x13.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on 20x10 Fuel Rebar Wheel.

Nope, you either have to switch out the panel about the mirrors with one that is meant for the skytop or add a switch to your current one.

If you have a regular hard top, all you need for the front is the overhead panel with the button and the wiring harness that goes with that. All you have to use is remove your old overhead panel and the wiring harness and replace with the new stuff. Plug and play. On the back you just plug the sky top into the regular hardtop plug.

I have this top on mine, can't imagine why anyone would sell it. After 3 soft top jeeps prevously I won't look back. When you get the One touch from factory the top doesn't open or close above 60mph. I wonder if after swapping it on does yours give you a message on the dash can't open, high speed warning.

@@evolvedjeepin The top has a force sensor in it from what I understand in the Manual. Its probably built in the top. Generally I don't open mine above 50mph and the top Will not work at 60mph at all. I'd check up the manual of the Jeep it has info on cold weather as well. Nice upgrade. Cool to see someone actually do this.

Did you say it would be more challenging if you were swapping a hard top with the sky one touch? Debating on switching out the hard top in my wife’s JL with the sky one touch in mine vs swapping out the seats because she has tan leather and I have black and she loves her tan leather seats.

I think you can purchase it through the dealership, but they will probably tell you that it can't be added to your jeep and your jeep as to come with it from the factory. But obviously that is not true and it can be done if your jeep and a factory hardtop from the factory. I am not sure that the parts numbers are for this.
