I don't have one yet for the Rubi but I did have one on my 05 LJ. Freaking awesome. Really cuts the sun and wind and makes the ride much more enjoyable.

Yea my brother has the Wade plexi glass cover, he likes it a lot, only thing he dislikes is that it creates crazy wind noise. my recommendation would be to notch the plexi glass where the hand screws for your door surrounds go, if you dont it bows. bad design on their part there, but an easy fix.

Im just wanting to know which would be better to go with....

TrailMesh or UltraMesh

I looked at these and went with dirty dog 4x4 sunshades.

In no particular order:

1) they are a forum sponsor
2) good customer service
3) the tops came all the way to the edge of the roll bar. If I recall the spider shades had a small gap on the sides. With my luck that would be the gap the sun would come through and burn me or my passengers. LOL!

Good luck!
