Default trektop nx

So today my trektop nx arrived. I'm pretty pumped. How long do I need to lay it out for and how hot does it need to be before I can install it? I really don't want to screw it up by not waiting. Thanks.

I put mine on today for the first time. It was 75-80 outside. I let it sit out for about 2 hours as I took off my hard top and installed the surrounds. It took a little muscle, but it wasn't to difficult to put on. BTW it's a 2012 2-DR.

Sweet. That's exactly what I have. How do you like it?

Put your factory top up for sale on this forum. The trecktop come with all the hardware needed so include all your stuff with it. Shipping is expensive so you might want to do local pickup.

I'm not sure how many. I know the door surrounds and header/tailgate bars. Then of course the framework. Anybody know what else?

I just bought this top too and I'm waiting for the warmer weather to install. Does anybody have a picture of the sunrider open on a 2-door? I'd like to see how much it opens - hopefully it opens as much as the freedom top.
