I have a sailcloth RAT with tinted windows. Much quieter than the original top and cooler in what passes for hot weather over here. Can't see too much in the back with the tinted windows.

None of them come with drivers or passengers windows tinted as its not legal in the US for them to be. Something to do with too many cops being shot point blank cause they couldn't see into the window till it was rolled down, hence they were unable to see guns pointed at them.
And yes the Sailcloth replacement soft tops are quieter like what the JK's have on them.
The Bestop R.A.T. is a better quality than a Pavements Ends or Rampage soft top.

I was going to get a Bestop, but I ended getting a Rugged Ridge soft top with tinted windows from Phil at Ozadventure4x4, yet to install it but looks the goods...
