Default Rear window netting

I have been searching all over for netting that covers the actual rear windows of a 4 door Unlimited that would fasten somehow to the actual door. I can seem to find netting for the rest of my Jeep but when I put my dog in the back it seems Im stuck leaving the back windows closed which doesnt make much sense. Does anyone know where I could find something like this? Or any other idea before I just build something myself.

This is becoming a very hot topic lately. I had the idea a couple of years ago to just buy some beat up/cut windows and just have some screen material sewn in in place of the window and have yet to get around to having it done. It seems that there aren't as many beat up windows out there as I thought there would be.

Sure something like that might work for a Soft top with half door but I am talking about the actual rear power windows in the back of an Unlimited with a hardtop on. Not the area directly behind the rear windows.

If these guys don't have what you want, contact them. I'd put money down that they would make it if you asked

I had planned to do the same. Either when my original windows needed replaced or I found some cheap ones for sale. So far, neither has happened.

I made some netting/shade myself mainly for my dog, but I attached them the to rollbar of my 2 dr. I can take the top down, off, windows off. I leave it on all the time. it looks like I have tinted windows. I don't know if this will help but here are some pics.

I made my own cargo net with para cord. I covered the back side openings and the trunk portion. Stays in year around, with soft/hard tops. The netting is fully removable, only two permanent anchor points. I'll take some pictures when i get home tonight.

Fyi, dogs love it!!!!

I would think that with some magnetic strips and some netting that this would be a pretty easy job for a DIY or a upholstery shop.

UPDATE::

So Mike over at Dirtydog 4x4 agreed to make me two window nets that will snap on. I just have to drill and fasten the snaps to my door frame and I should be all set.
