How hard would it be to mod the rear window on soft top to be glass? Since the top doesnt fold down. Any thoughts?

Wasn’t it a company like Retrofit Off-road, or something along those lines that produces a glass slider replacement for upper half doors on a Jk? I would imagine that getting in touch with those guys might be a good start.

How about contacting an auto interior/vinyl top shop. Wonder if they can stitch and then order a custom glass that has the required fabric perimeter to re-stitch. Upholsterer is the word I was looking for. Real good question. Dam back window won't look like it does now in 1,2,5,10 years. real good question.

Wow I freaking love this. I’d do it in a heartbeat if somebody wants to do the leg work. Unfortunately it feels like there’s a fair bit of custom fab work here

Edit: Is there any chance you could do this photoshop in white?
