Default Reposted trail cover help

I'm looking for a trail cover to use when I'm at work. I work for the fire department and my jeep has to sit outside under trees overnight. I have an unlimited with full doors. I don't remove the doors very often so I am looking for a cover that will fit over full doors with the OEM mirrors. Could someone with experience with this setup give me some direction on which top to get?

Thanks in advance for the advice.

Maybe the crowd looking here is different and can help.

Perfect. Thanks for the responses. Just wasn't sure if they were made to fit over the mirrors. Will order on next week.

I have a raingear from jeepcovers.com I have the one that states the soft/hard top had to be removed but I can tell you that it fits with my soft top folded down and surrounds on just fine..

The top sags a bit on the top but I fixed this buy making PVC bows to prop it up so the water falls off it easier.

Here you can see how it covers half past the tail light even with my guards on.. The cover has Velcro slits for the mirror so you don't have to fold them in..
Good luck

I like how that cover goes further down the tub than most

Is it safe to say that water doesn't leak thru when pooled for a period of time?
