Yes I put my net on when I have my hardtop off. It is the greatest! You are supposed to have a tailgate bar to have it snap into,but I use mine without it and it works fine.

Yes it can. In fact that's how I would recommend it. I use it with a bikini top, and you have to put them on just right for them to work together well. I second that you don't need the tailgate bar. I use it both ways.

The only thing you need from the roof is the bar that acts as a seal for the back door. I take my entire roof off. It uses the same connection devices along the bottom edge as a soft top does. Also have to remove the soft top door frame holders too if you have them. I couldn't get it to connect around them. But yes, it works without the roof just fine. Most all the mounting stuff is built into it.

Concur with previous comments. Best to mount it outdoor, chimney mount, using pipe, some strapping, and the brackets that come with the antenna.

Used a piece of electrical conduit.....cut it to the size I needed and fastened it to a wall on the roof.A good hardware store can help u on that!

It won't really interfere with the roof. It can be mounted just about anywhere on the rain gutters or rails. Maybe about half of the sunroof would be covered at least. But this is a fantastic roof basket and perfect for anything that you may need to put up there.

Yes, I think you can. We have a car rack but if you get some extra clips you can attach it to the car without a roof rack.

It mounts with straps that go around existing rails (factory roof rails). You will not need to buy or use any additional items for this product. It's also very stable and holds snug without wind flap. Other models I have seen/heard about have wind issues, not this one, it is very solid and heavy duty.

You could try to zip tie it, tape it or use a hose clamp to mount it to the bars. It doesn't come with any mounting device.

You have to buy mounting hardware separately because there are many different ways people will need to mount it. Some poles have a "foot" designed to attach to a roof, others are designed for attaching to the side of a wall. Other buyers may have an exiting old-school antenna on their roof and can just attach it directly to the same pole that that uses.

Very simple, quick installation. There are 4 covers that should already be on your roof where the rack needs to be mounted. There is a little slot on each of them to pop them off with a screwdriver - under those covers you will easily see how the mounts fit in and get secured. Took about 20 minutes to complete the job - the front and back are different sizes - make sure you pay attention to that and also build the rack before you just put in the mounts. The cross bars just slide in between the 2 mounts (I think there may have been a screw to secure, but possibly not). Hope this helped

There are mounting bolts with threads under the plastic tabs on the roof . You just pop them off and screw into rack. Easy .

It doesn't come with any brackets for mounting. I purchased a universal mounting kit which had everything you need to put it on either a pole garage or roof. Tons of left over pieces

All you will need to do is install the rack system. No modifications needed to the roof to install.

I have indicated on my review, not to purchase this particular item, with the reasons. Not sure this would work any better without a roof rack.

Yes. We don't have a roof rack either. Just make sure you buy the rubber mat underlayment.

I attached it to my side rails without a roof rack. I did have some good straps that I had previously purchased. The topper has loops that you can use.

yes it has all you need to install, but you will need to have some torx wrench's someone to help is nice but can be installed alone I covered my roof with a quilt to keep from scratching the roof.

Depends, It comes with brackets and a wiring harness. You can mount it easily to your roof with what comes with the kit
