Want this just for side windows. Too hot for no roof. Can you install just the side bit, or can you put the whole thing on with the soft top roof?

It zips together a but needs to be connected. So side wouldn't stay alone. And no, it can't stay on with soft top on as they use same rail to connect.

I use this with a bikini top. One strap on the center of the roll cage doesn't fit quite right with both but it still works fine

It is one piece so you have to install the whole thing. You can zip up the back area and roll it up just like you can roll up the soft top back window. Even thought it is one piece you can install it and also have the soft top on at the same time. That way you can take off the side windows and still have the net in place. I usually keep both on all summer, like you said when the sun is too hot I like to have the top up, but take it down in the evening.

We would like to help you (really we would) but many companies that sell on the internet through third party warehouses or otherwise are not equipped to answer technical questions about automotive or other manufactured products. We would ask that you use the on-line fitment tools provided by Amazon and eBay to first determine whether or not the products being offered are suitable for your needs. If you need further assistance, it is best to contact the manufacturer directly. Most manufacturers have 800 numbers and can be easily "googled" for technical and other forms of support. Many of their websites even have installation videos, so they are often well worth contacting. * We can help you with simple questions relating to color, shape and general fitment issues but beyond that the manufacturer is your best source of information for technical product detail. Most of the items we sell are not in our Virginia warehouse, so we are unable to visually inspect them. We hope this helps you to find the best product for your project!

Nope, have to install the whole thing. You can keep you soft top down and manipulate it to put the top back up if you need to. Pain in the ass but you can do it in a jam

I know the whole thing will go on under a combo brief top. That's what I normally run in the summer. Don't know for sure about a regular framed soft top. I've got a hardtop for rainy season.

I suppose it is possible but not with the supplied screws and hardware, would have to be done by eliminating one side and attaching the 2 separate cages together with wire, ties or some other strong and durable material, and I'm not sure how you would secure the roof. It seems to me a better choice and one that would be fairly cost effect would be to purchase a double cage of the side/by/side variety and then just not use the center wall rather than trying to save a few bucks and end up with something less stable and more awkward. I wouldn't do it. I've seen those double side by side cages for about $249.00. It is quite possible that the center wall is more cosmetic rather than structural.

You could try to use them for the passenger side windows, however you'd need something to keep it in place, that and you would need to find the right size. Still my main advice against this item is the fact that it is very THIN, and it gets very HOT. You're better off getting those side shades that stick to the side window then this, or tinting them.

I don't have a soft top on my JK, but I will say this, there is approximately 1-2" clearance between the tubular bar and the roof/windshield. I think what might get you with your soft top is the fact that the tabs/shelves that you attach your lights to are behind the tube that goes across. I measured the clearance from them to the line where my hard top edge is and it is approximately 0.5" in front of and 1.25" above that line. If I had to guess, I would say that the overlap of your cloth top would probably touch them but not be a problem.

Well, I'm not exactly sure what you're looking for, in terms of an installation kit or even if you need one, but the air condition is VERY simple to install w/ what comes in the box. Of course, the situation may depend on the type of windows you have if you have to modify or add a little extra (maybe a bit of plywood or whatnot if you need to adjust the ac positioning). But overall, if you have typical windows, then you really shouldn't need anything else. @Robyn, As I mentioned above, it's not really that hard to install, but I would suggest (considering you situation, as you stated) to at least make sure you have someone else there to help you get it in just right--maybe a younger relative, friend, or such. I pretty able-bodied but due to how my window that I had my old ac was right where my bed was (and I sure as heck wasn't moving my bed! lol); my daddy helped my from the outside while I did the secure and screwing from on top my bed. So, yeah, while it's not will it's not difficult it's not something you should do by yourself, if you don't have to. The way you describe your windows sound like how mines open--as long as your window can open about a foot or 2 you should be fine. The ac is not ridiculously huge of anything so you (hopefully) shouldn't have to remove anything extra. But again, I can't exactly speak for your window specifically (b/c I can't see it).

I don't see why you can not lay it on its side ,one side has not vents for cooling so lay that side down, hope this helps

You could use it out side, however, it is NOT insulated so therefore in the cold or heat you would need to do something different. Also the top does not fasten, it just sets on top. I would NOT recommend it for outside use

The bottom part just slides into the window and the top part hooks onto the window. You would put the window down part way, hook onto it then roll the window up. It works well but the problem is all shades are rectangular and all windows are different. It works well for my wife and I in each of our cars but the sun still finds a way through.

How or where do you put these iin a car? I heard someone say the car windows?? Can anyone please elaborate a liitle more on this topic? thanks:)

Thank you. Finally an interesting question! Of course setting the front tube over the front doors won't be a problem.To set the rear one........first do the sliding door windows open at all? Some do.Even swinging out at the rear will do. If yours do then your done but you will not be able touse the rear doors while installed.So let's say the windows aren't an option. You will need to barely open the door just enoughSo you can slip the strap through to the rear side of where the track attaches to the door so that you will then be able to close the door without it catching on the strap.You will not be able to open the doors this way either...doing so may damage the strap.I'd rather see you use a traditional roof top rack.

It could be set on something, but not for use. It would get too hot unless you are pulling air through the hood to keep the temps down. Even then, it would probably lose some light coverage. Best bet is to hang it. It has some weight to it, so if you have to make a mounting structure make it sturdy.

I'd like to think you can. But please don't take my word for it because I wouldn't want any one chemical to affect that classic's roof! Please be on safe side and contact their customer service. Hope it turns well for you!

very easy to install. It will take 4 holes, two per side. Yes, you should find something that can handle the weight of the shade, especially in the wind.

2 side windows are large enough to provide good ventilation. We have to close them at night when temp dropped down into 60s. We haven't used it in a hot Texas summer yet.

It will work on the side part. I wouldn't trust it with the top as it might fall down. But you can try.

No, It's Not A Big Enough Piece To Cover Even A Small Window, Maybe If It Was Bigger You could, And Only On The Rear Windows, IlleGal On The Front, It Could Be Used As A Small Strip At The Top Of You Winshield If You Were Up For it.

You cannot put any thing on top, the screen is very fragile, I have a couple of canopies, but this is only for non heat elements, I have this heated wire you place in the bottom from ExoTerra that works great to provide a warmed environment.
