Default SUMMER TOP IDEAS for a 4 Door

Hey all, got my Mopar Sun Bonnet today (looks much better than the defective one they first sent) so now I need some input on a deck cover. They range from $ 46 to $160 and all look the same. Anybody have the Smittybuilt or the Pavement ends covers? I usually buy the Bestop stuff but thought I would check on the others first to see if quality was the same. I am thinking of not getting a cover extension because it appears that it would need to be a pretty good sideways rain to get inside. Any info appreciated !

I just bought and installed the Smittybuilt deck cover 2 weeks ago. The cover is durable and seals well along the jeep rail. After a weekend of heavy rain, I have to say that it did a much better job keeping out the moisture than my bestop bikini top did. The cargo area was almost completely dry, with just a little moisture at the base of the roll bar, while my bestop biking leaked like a siv. I had water running down all four doors, with the carpet in the floor boards completely saturated. I would definitely recommend the Smittybuilt. At less than $70, it is a much better value than some of the competitors' covers.
