Excited! I just got word that the glide in twill for my 2-door was shipped today and should arrive tomorrow! For Father's Day I'm asking my kids to get me the bestop storage thing to keep the windows safe when not installed.

Installed today. Took about 2.5 hours, taking my time. Instruction manual + YouTube. I didn't put the windows in yet.

Nice.
Leave the widows lay out in the sun for awhile before installing, makes it much easier, or, hang the windows and run the engine, with the heat blowing through the A/C vents on high to warm them up.
