Default Bestop Windjammer: very upset

Hi Jeepers (sorry for my english; I'm French Canadian)
Last week, I bought from Quadratec, the Bestop Bikini top, Windjammer, Duster Deck Cover, Windshield Channel, and the Mopar Tailgate Bar. I also bought from the dealer the 4 Mopar Door Rails.
I am very upset about the windjammer. This is the worst model I have seen. The water comes into the Jeep by the windjammer like the Niagara Falls! And there is no Wraparound Windjammer for the unlimited. Ridicoulus...
Fortunately, Quadratec has a 30 day return policy. Therefore, I will receive this week the Supertop by Bestop. The dealer don't have a return policy, so I will have to sell my Mopar door rails on Ebay.

Not to be rude, but thats how the windjammer works. Its not meant to be weatherproof.

Sometimes you need to do a little homework before buying things.

Not to harp on the Search function, but it would have helped you out. As a side not though, you CAN apparently make the wraparound windjammer work on the unlimited. Search for the thread detailing how.

I know, but with this modification, the back seats have to be down. Not very interesting if you have 3 passengers...

I've added the wraparound to my 4-door and the back seats DO NOT have to be down. You do have to unbolt the rear seat belts to take the jammer on or off though...

Most likely. I have used the 2dr wrap around for the past 4 years on the wifes 07 JKU, and although it fits quite tight, it works.
