Default Emergency Cover

Hi everyone, I own a 2010 Wrangler Sport with a couple after market products (light bar, front and rear brush guard, 35" tires, etc) and the main problem I keep running into is what everyone does in the summer when they get caught in the rain. My friend who drives a TJ recommended an emergency top but you cannot drive with it on. I have seen others that permanently sit on the back and just fold up when needed, but I'm looking for a portable cover that can just be stored in the back but can also be taken out as needed when it rains. I don't want it to be visible when it isn't needed though (like the fold up ones are). Any help? Thanks!

i have two covers and both require going over the windshield, which would not work with your light bar. I'm not aware of any easily removable/foldable cover that can work without a header bar.

Does your Jeep have a hardtop? If so, you can run just the freedom panels to protect the drivers compartment. I do this in the Summer if there is a chance of rain, and it works great.

take a look at Rain Gear Covers at the link I provided above. Or even Google "Jeep Rain Gear Cover Reviews" -- I just received mine last week. The quality is awesome. Come with a storage bag and fits neatly in the rear cargo area. Had a cahnce to test it out over the weekend and it definitely gets the job done.
