I was wondering the same and based on my research, it looks like the overwhelming winner was the Mopar brand sun bonnet. They are around $300, but everybody seems to really like them.

I have this one bought it like 3 years ago...when not using I keep it in the garage. I can install it in like 6 minutes.
You need to buy another part for it, it's the canal piece that goes across the front window frame.
Here are the pros
Easy to Install
Can keep it in the jeep if you don't need it, then when it rains you just put it on
Keeps the dash/steering dry even in a heavy downpour
price is alright about 109 for the top on quadratec(atleast what I paid) not counting the canal
Now for the Cons
Fabric is not the best/but you don't use it all the time
Stitching is it's weakest point/hope it lasts
when it pours the water acummilates on top like lots of it
Water still comes through the sides if stopped for a long time
Overall a great buy for a sunny day it really does a great job of keeping the kiddos in the back cool and it looks great on the jeep.
I already have a hard top and a soft top. Just need a little something to keep the sun off, when out with the tops totally off. I took it to the lake this weekend and got a sunburn on my forehead, on the way up, smh.
I'll add to the SpiderwebShade fan club - Just got one last week and couldn't be happier. It will be on for all of July and August to reduce the beating from the NC sun.
I've been interested in getting a bikini top as well. I'm wondering if you can have a sun shade and bikini top at the same time? I have a RR full shade already for when I take my hard top off but it would be nice to have something like a bikini top I could keep in the jeep and throw on if it looks like weather is moving in. I just bought some soft doors for the same reason. I dont want a full soft top, just a little insurance if I get caught in some weather.
I am looking as well and I am leaning towards the Jeep Tops USA one, not cheap, but seems to be very well done. Looking at their window storage tube also.
