Gobi 2dr soft top pics please?
I've been searching and I find a ton of pics of 4dr and hard top applications. Who is running this with the soft top and more importantly with the top down or off! And how does it sound with the top off? Obvious there will be some noise, I have that in a light bar already.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Decided to go for it without getting any pics! So if anyone is in my shoes, here are some 2dr softtop Gobi pics. The Thule accessories work great too!

It mounts to the windshield brackets up front, then picks up the bumper mounts in the back (no drilling!). It also has a couple of rubber sway stops against the tub seam in the back with adhesive covers to protect the paint.
Here is a link to the install instructions.

Yeah, I found a ton of 4dr and hardtop applications of the Gobi rack, but not much of the 2dr and especially with the top off.

To tell you the truth, this might sound pretty eco and budget ignorant, but the MPGs didn't even cross my mind when rack shopping. lol I drive a Jeep after all!

With the top down and doors off, I didn't notice it.
Witt the top down and doors on, I notice it over the tire/road noise starting at 45MPG.
With the top up and all closed up, the sound is deafening starting at 45MPH. I mean no more so than with the top down, but I don't expect to be able to have a conversation with my passenger with the top down.
I'm definitely going to add the wind deflector. I'm also going to sell the lights (they came used with the rack) as I don't wheel at night. They look cool, but they aren't very aerodynamic.
