If you got it, flaunt it...

Haha, I put my spider web shade on my JKU just before picking my kids up from school. My daughter got in the Jeep and immediately said "take it off, what's the purpose of taking the top off only to put a shade on and block the sun!" We'll see if she feels that way when the temps get above 90 degrees ;-) I also noticed that the spider web did seem to flap at high speed in the center above the sound bar. I'm thinking of maybe threading a bungy type chord through the two holes in the soundbar used for the freedom top and then through the two holes in the spider web. Anyone else tried anything to help keep the flapping down?

Not yet. I was looking at those last night. I'm thinking of putting in a set of eye-bolts up through the soundbar and securing it that way. I can then undo the front half and fold it back above the back half when I put the Trektop NX back on without taking the shade completely off. This will also allow the two center clips from the Trektop to hook to underneath.

Yeah, you would seriously have thought that Spider Shade would have developed another set of those nice bungee balls specifically for the holes. All it would have to be is a ball on top, thread through the hole, and then some type of quick fastener on the bottom. It could maybe be a piece of plastic that is attached to the bungee that is small enough to go through the hole, but once through, it pivots flat with bungee mounting at the center point. Think I'll go provide Spider Shade some feedback, see if they can't develop it and maybe send me one as a free-bee ;-)

Chris from spider shade will not tolerate a ball sticking out the top of your rig. LOL. My shade dosent flap, whats the overall consensus from everyone else?

Maybe you used a long strap where you should have used a short strap? They do have different sizes.

I haven't had any issues with flapping. Are your bungees stretched out?

Three short bungee's in front, long ones everywhere else? Was I suppose to use the short ones elsewhere?

If he doesn't like the ball sticking out the top, then put it on the bottom and the pivoting flat plastic piece on top. (BTW, I did notice in the install videos how much they referenced turning the "ball" side of the bungee down, made me laugh.)

Brand new. As in, I opened box, installed, went out on highway, got light flapping at 50 mph, not even 5 minutes of use on the bungees, so I doubt they were worn out from use :cool:

I did go to Lowes this morning and picked up some eye bolts, nuts, lock nuts, and washers to bolt through the soundbar. I don't have a hard top so I can use these in that location year-round.

I will post my findings when I get the chance to install and use them.

My only challenge is that I didn't bother to line up the hard-top eye-holes when I did my install. I went to put on the hard top and the bolts wouldn't go through (obviously). I was too lazy to fix it at that time so I just letft those bolts out/off of the hard top (was just going down the road). I'll have to fix it before any appreciable drive by re-aligning the spiderwebshade's centering by tugging on some bungees or whatever works.
