Question JK Unlimited Golden Eagle Windows

Hoping to get some help locating OEM replacement tan soft top windows. Had a CJ, then a TJ, my first foray into the JK Unlimited world. Found the GE with a dual top. Top was never opened and I was unaware of the factory boxes that came with them new that contained the door surrounds and the soft top windows. I was able to get the hardware, but am unable to locate the tan windows. Any help would be appreciated. I've been searching ebay with no luck. My next step is junkyards, but there doesn't seem to be many GE's on the road. If junkyard fails, I may just try to dye the fabric myself, but hoping not to get to that point. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

OOF, you are searching for something that is more rare. I think maybe your best option is to reach out to Bestop, but I shudder to think what that cost might be. Is that a premium twill material? Love to see some pictures of the jeep!

Yeah, I'd look at Bestop. I thought Quadratec sold the various colored tops which would mean they've got access to the windows, but straight to three manufacturer would be the easiest route.

I'm also in for pictures. I've seen a few and while I'm a fan of the classic white, they also put it on rhino if I'm remembering back to the dealer correctly.

Bestop sounds like a good place to start. Thanks.

The GE came in a few colors, Rhino was a cool option.

When they came out with the colored soft tops I contacted Bestop and they told me they did not make the colored uppers. At that time. Which is lame. It's been a couple years a guess. I have searched and can't even come up with a photo of a JK with colored uppers. I don't think they exist. I was thinking of maybe an upholstery shop might be able to make some. $$ I always thought my green jeep would look pretty sick with the pebble or tan top.

There is a company here in Newfoundland that makes all sorts of sail cloth and canvas items. I bet they can make some replacement panels for the soft uppers for a decent price. We had a bunch of stuff made for our yacht when we had it.
