Bestop Duster Deck Cover 9002435 for Jeep Wrangler TJ Unlimited 2004-2006

My Jeep: 2005 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited (LJ)Buyer beware: this part is NOT for the shorter-wheelbase TJ model Jeep. It will not fit (too long). This is ONLY for the LJ model Jeep Wrangler (2004-2006 2-door Unlimited).That being said: this is a very easy installation, very user-friendly. It comes with the Duster cover, two tailgate bar retainers, four screws for the retainers, the tailgate bar (you can't use your existing one). If you already have a tailgate bar installed at the factory (all Jeeps with the factory soft top do), the holes for the retainers line up perfectly. Unscrew the four self-tapping screws, remove the factory retainers, put in the new retainers, screw in the self-tapping screws.After that, you fasten the front of the duster cover with nylon straps (loosely... you'll tighten it later), stretch the top over the deck, connect to the tailgate bar (the new one that comes with the kit), and install the bar. The duster cover fits perfectly over the sport bars with hook-and-loop collars. Finally, tuck in the plastic retainers all around the tub channel. The very last step? Tighten the nylon belts at the front (closest to the cabin), and you have a very nice, very tight duster cover.The kit also comes with a strap to keep the back seat in the stowed position. It doesn't affect the function of the back seat, and is a nice touch. You fold the back seat forward, and it keeps the seat from bouncing up and down as you drive. It's very convenient, because it keeps your back seat in place, in case you need it to tote passengers. If you find yourself in that situation, take off the Duster cover (less than five minutes), roll it up and store it in the back, and pop the back seat up. Easy.Highly recommended, and looks SHARP!

Heat/very warm weather is crucial for installing and removing this cover. And an extra set of strong hands. The pull tabs are not attached super well so you have to be careful pulling on them, I ripped one off when removing the cover because it was too cold out.

On my 2006 Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon, I have the Bestop Safari Top, the Bestop Windjammer, and now the Bestop Duster. They all work great together, and look amazing.The Duster fits great, and was easy to get on. It stays taut, and now my valuables are not open to the world and the environment. I would definitely recommend this for your 04-06 Wrangler Unlimited

This fits very tight. Even in hot conditions it is difficult. (I live in Florida). First time putting it on I had a seam start pulling loose. I think the cover is actually pretty well made, I think the seam issue had more to do with how tight it fits. Once it is on it looks great. It does get a little easier over time. I would strongly recommend waiting for a warm day to put it on and lay it out in the sun to get it as warm as possible to put it on, and be patient with it. It does look good and I think the quality is good.

Fits perfect for my son’s 2005 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited LJ!!!

It was difficult to install at first.. You see, I had to remove the plastic cover on the rear seat belts. Normally you would use a T-50 torx to unscrew the bolts. Seeing as how my Jeep is old as dirt at this point in time, the screws would not budge.So we took a hacksaw to the plastic and removed it. Made putting the duster on so much easier.If you plan on doing the duster, wind jammer and alt roof, definitely get a friend or two to come over and help. This can be a one man job, but it is a difficult one man job.

Tight - take your time and it will fit and snug. Leaving it in the sun loosens it and removes the creases over time.

put on my 04 LJ, no issues. Did not use the Bestop tailgate bar/brackets, since I have a soft top, just used those. Nice touch the strap to keep the seat from bouncing, my LJ has a tool box behind the seat, so I could not access the footman loop, if the seat bounces too much, will strap it down some other way.

Exactly what it said. Easy to install
