It is still an issue with the hard top but not as bad. On my old soft top it was much worse. One way to deal with it is to jump on the side steps(if u have them to rock the jeep a little before you get in.

It rains here. A lot. Only good solution I have found is to park facing uphill. Then the water is channelling off the back of the Jeep instead of the front.

I have seen a few replies like this. But on the hard top model,it is worse when you are IN the vehicle.You park,you open door and a steady stream of water pours like a faucet onto your leg,shoe,floor.

I found a guy in Mesa Az. that designed and mfg. a wind control unit called The silencer System for soft top JK's. I discussed the water problem and sent him links to this thread and another. he is going to try to fab something that will work and add to his inventory. Hopefully he comes up with something and we can utilize it!
