The high line flares were designed to bolt onto standard fenders, IE the change is in the flare itself.
The body-side hinges are inside the door jam now, as opposed to out on the body, so I believe they simply aren't installed yet in this picture. You can see in the CAD rendering the hinges are hidden on the body side.I feel like there could be a fold down windshield and removable top but I don’t see any hinges for the removable doors. Do they add those after paint?
I agree I want the rear to drop down and out of the way. And Almost not have it attached to the top at all, more like have it go in the back of the cab. It would also make the top lighter and easier to remove.
It's just gots ta be a retractable! The rear glass has to be reconfigured anyway, since a flip out is wrong on a truck, and completely worthless with a canopy. Speaking of which, a pop out would suck too, with a camper if you want a pass though. So why not power retract that bad boy? And as far as CO2 entering the cab, that's a non issue, with 5' between the tailgate and rear glass. Come on FCA! Do it!
Integrated into the top? It will be interesting to see how they do it, that's for sure.
Retractable glass makes the most sense all around as it would even work for the soft top. I think there a good chance for it. Also check out that section I outlined on the CAD it looks like a window area within the body tub.
It would definitely be interesting with a soft top configuration, or maybe if they do offer it it'll be an upgrade for the hard top only. Not sure if they would want to invest the money in so many different top configurations when a simple sliding glass rear window would get the job done. Interesting points and observation though!
I hope it comes to fruition, but I am not aware of a vehicle with removable soft and hard tops which incorporate a power roll-down glass window without a fixed frame. I don’t see how that would be incorporated into all of the top options available on a Wrangler-based platform. They would likely have to manufacture different body tub configurations. They haven’t shown the willingness to do that with the Wrangler...
