Mine is very difficult to get untucked from the tailgate, the top goes too far under the metal and sometimes will not come back out I have to unzip the whole window and slide it sideways off the tailgate, I think thew tailgate attatching sucks,
I have to unzip, reachin and flip the tension off the rear bow on bothe sides before I can get the flap loose cause theres nothing to grab onto, a couple of little loops to hook your finger into would be nice to pull the flap out.0
Im considering making a groved strip of metal, (like at the bottom of the windows), tuck the top in it, and then use wing nuts or duetz nuts or snaps or velcro, or something, so I can just yank the thing off the tailgate.
or attatch the groved strip to each side at the back of the side windows with snaps or duetz bolts, so I can unzip the sidesm reach in and pop each side loose and not have to fiddle with the flap.
besides I had the old top so I have 11 holes where the snaps used to be on the tailgate I need to cover up.
DO not drill any holes for the support behind the door frame, If you heat the support rod and put a Z bend in it, it will drop right into the front bolt hole where the hard top was.
The new model top is light years ahead of the old one, but all ya gotta do is look at the top on a Wrangler if you wanna see how it should be done.
My dad has a new Wrangler and the top is very , very easy to drop, and water tight.

I could use some ideas on how to store the windows after I remove them on a trip,
Thought about building a pocket on the back of the rear seat, and what if the window is dirty,?
like driving on the approach road to Tellico, then say I want to remove the windows? do you wash them before you remove them?
and why cant we get a sheet of that plastic cling stuff that goes on the front of your PDA screen, to stick on the windows so they wont scratch?
why?
