I have a 2020 Jeep Wrangler JL Rubicon 2-Door with Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), and I’m planning to install a Bestop Supertop® Glide Squareback Soft Top.
Will this light bar be fully compatible with my Jeep, without interfering with the operation of the Bestop soft top?
I want to make sure the soft top can be opened and folded normally and that the ACC system will continue to work properly.
Yes, the Quadratec Gen II Stealth LED Interior Mount 50” Light Bar will be fully compatible with your vehicle and soft top.
Because this light bar mounts securely inside the vehicle across the top of the windshield frame, it stays entirely out of the path of the exterior header latches and fabric. Your Bestop Supertop Glide Squareback Soft Top will be able to fold back, open, and latch normally without any physical interference.
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) radar sensor on your Wrangler JL Rubicon is located in the lower front bumper grille area, and the forward-facing camera is integrated into the rearview mirror mount on the windshield. Since an interior upper windshield light bar does not obstruct the front bumper radar or the mirror/windshield camera zone, your ACC system will continue to function properly.

Why does this not work with the Sky One-Touch Power Top?
The incompatibility boils down to clearance and different mounting structures along the interior upper windshield frame.
The Quadratec Gen II Stealth Light Bar is engineered to bolt directly into the factory header panel using the existing fasteners found on standard Hardtops and Softtops. However, the Sky One-Touch Power Top (SOT) uses a drastically different header design:
The SOT Motor and Drive Components: The power top utilizes a massive, centralized motorized mechanism and thick, integrated tracking tracks in the front header panel. This gear takes up the exact physical space where the Stealth bar's custom interior mounting brackets need to sit.
Latch Points: Standard tops use manual latch placement points that the Stealth brackets are precisely molded to contour around. The automated sealing mechanism on the Sky One-Touch completely changes this upper geometry.
Because of this, trying to install it standard out-of-the-box will result in the light bar blocking the movement of the power top, hitting the motor casing, or failing to align with the factory mounting holes altogether.

Will this work with Lasfit auxiliary kit. Since it also provides a T- harness that gets its power from cigarette lighter ?
Yes, the Quadratec Gen II Stealth LED Interior Mount 50” Light Bar can work with a Lasfit auxiliary switch kit.

What are the Pros and Cons of this product compared to a outside light?
Comparing the Quadratec Gen II Stealth LED Interior Mount 50” Light Bar to a traditional exterior-mounted light bar reveals distinct advantages and drawbacks regarding noise, mounting, and performance.
Pros of the Interior Light Bar:
Eliminates wind noise and drag that typically reduce fuel economy.
Avoids bulky exterior brackets that can catch on tree branches on tight trails.
Protects the light housing and lens from severe weather and direct impacts from trail debris.
Cons of the Interior Light Bar:
Can create minor internal windshield glare or reflections inside the cabin when used at night.
Restricted compatibility (e.g., incompatible with the factory Sky One-Touch Power Top option).
Mounting position inside the cabin can slightly obstruct the upper peripheral view compared to a roof-mounted bar.

How much visibility gets blocked, I'm 6'-1" and concern if I will be able to see enough, any interior photos? Thanks
Very little. There are a couple of photos that customers have shared in both the JL and JK versions that show interior fitment and views out the windshield - there's minimal impact.

Will this work with the MasterTop Bimini Plus Summer Top #11122-9735? It seems like it would block the front straps. If not, is there a creative work-around solution to use both products?
We recommend using a bimini top with a header channel, such as 11132-0642.
