... probably useless on the road though
There is no reason you can't set the solid windows up to be just like a tent. Have the mesh behind the fabric (one solid window panel), and just have a way to unzip the fabric leaving the mesh behind it. I could see where that would be nice.

I could always take a Safari top and hack it up. I should be able to get two windows from one top if I do not find fabric. This would be the last resort though.

I want to get mesh windows for the front and back to allow for the air circulation for when I am using the sunrider top, but not have it totally opened up. I'm pretty sure that mesh windows don't exist, so my next idea was to get mesh and industrial strength velcro and make my own.

Yet. Give it some time, they were available for the TJ, they will probably come out for the JK as well.

Bestop was quick to respond. They gave me the information on where to buy the fabric. I will look into cost.

What info do you have from Best Top regarding the fabric?

This sounds like a good DIY project.

I don't know who's JK you've been in recently, but I'd like to see one big enough that can double as a stripper pole. Perhaps if they are short enough.....
