Default Best Top bikini, windjammer, duster install and fix

so if anyone has installed this combination they know there are gaps between the door frames and the roll cage. Aside from the super stretching you have to do to actually get all of this on and in place I see this as the next biggest problem. My JK came with just the hard top so I dont have the rails above the doors to attach the side of the bikini to so I had to find another solution on extremely limited funds for the time being. This is my fix for under 25 bucks.

First pics without...




and the fix...

Good job.

Looks like it works and it's not that noticeable.

Default Thanks

Thank you. The only other thing I am considering doing is either getting a thicker insulation to wrap the PVC in or getting a more heavy duty weather stripping for the doors. Someone also suggested that the wrap around wind jammer is more water tight than the one I have. I may take a look at that and sell mine. Anyone have any pics?

I don't think the wraparound will work on yours unless you get the door frames for the softtop.
