Head to Ikea and get two $4 blankets. Super easy.

I did something similar with just blankets but never thought about using a pool noodle and a carry bag for a chair. One little tip though... the rear bar for the back window can be placed right back into the channel. The tailgate actually holds the bar in place. No need to put it under the top but that’s just my personal preference. Awesome tips though!

Nice video! I'll use this idea next time I get the top down. The only thing I'll change is the blankets; instead of using fleece blankets (that might get full of static and attract dust), I'll get a flannel blanket!

Quick question about the sticker. I’ve wanted to add some to my soft top, I see your vid was posted a couple years ago... how well has it held up? I’ve got a bunch of vinyl stickers so I’m curious how well they stick and hold up.

@JesseThorstad-personal 7 жыл бұрын
Scott, the rail can be laid in the back, butted right up against the roll bars. Then the soft top can be folded down on top of it. Works great!

Cool video man. I keep leaving my windows at home. My jk is the same way. But I've never seen anyone store them within the top when its been folded down. That I think is a great idea. I'm gonna do that from now on. Also, I've bought spare clear windows off other owners who sell them for whatever reason. It's smart to keep an extra pair stored in case of anything. One time I tried folding my back window in 20 degree weather and little did I know that the plastic had become hard and brittle. The plastic broke!

OH wait! You're talking about the white one on my soft window? I made that with a ZIP printer. I got the logo, reversed it in photoshop, then printed it. The ZIP printer prints on small stickers. I printed the logo across SIX stickers, and pieced it together on the window.

can you just roll the rear window up with out taking it out? just bought a jeep and looking at soft tops
@JesseThorstad-personal
@JesseThorstad-personal 5 жыл бұрын
You can! The soft top will actually have loops at the top to hold the rolled back window in place. Two caveats, though. People report that this technique scratches the back window plastic very quickly, and very badly. Secondly, I don't think you'd want to fold your entire top down with the back window rolled up in there. It would add bulk and prevent the top from folding up in a tidy way.

@JesseThorstad-personal
@JesseThorstad-personal 7 жыл бұрын
Imagine a side window unzipped. The blankets are about as wide as the side windows are long, with a few extra inches in there. Then, the blanket is long enough to fold back over the window, completely covering it.
