Wrangler JK / JKU fitment questions
Does CL200 fit my Jeep Wrangler JK?
CL200 fits 2009–2018 Wrangler JK and JKU models, including two-door and four-door versions. Confirm your model and hardtop setup before ordering.
What if my JK is a 2007 or 2008?
2007–2008 JK models use CL278. Review the CL278 listing for availability, or ask ClearLidz to confirm your fitment.
My Wrangler is a 2018. Is it JK or JL?
Confirm whether your 2018 Wrangler is a JK or JL before ordering. JK/JKU uses CL200; JL/JLU uses CL300.
Does this replace the whole hardtop?
No. ClearLidz replaces the front Freedom Panels. Standard installation retains the rear hardtop. ClearLidz can also be used with the rear hardtop removed, with additional support for a secure fit. Contact ClearLidz for the setup required for your model.
What is involved in installing CL200?
Allow approximately 15 minutes for standard installation. Follow the CL200 / CL278 guide for seal placement, thumbscrews and latches. Check alignment and the seal before driving. View the installation guides.
Can I remove ClearLidz?
Yes. Remove and store the top following the product manual. Plan for weather and keep the roof in a protected place when it is off the Jeep.
Can I use an aftermarket hardtop?
For standard installation, the rear hardtop must accommodate the OEM Freedom Panels. ClearLidz uses those attachments.
Can ClearLidz be used with a soft top?
ClearLidz replaces the Freedom Panels on a hardtop-equipped Jeep. It cannot be installed with the soft top in place. It can be used when the soft top is completely removed, with additional support for a secure fit. Contact ClearLidz for advice on your setup.
Can I use ClearLidz without the rear hardtop?
Yes. ClearLidz can be used on its own over the front seats with the rear hardtop removed. This setup requires additional support for a secure fit. Contact ClearLidz for the requirements for your Jeep model before installing it this way.
Can I get help choosing or installing my ClearLidz?
Yes. ClearLidz offers direct, personalized customer support. Contact the team for help with fitment, installation or your Jeep's roof setup.
