Hard top side window

[LeighP]

From the advert....



Rebel Off Road Engineeering's window replacement with RotopaX Black Storage Pack and RotopaX locking mount.

Out of all the parts on my own Jeep JK, even with Dana 60's, 40" tires, front and rear coil overs, the number 1 part people ask about are these! These window replacements are made out of aluminum and are designed to replace the factory rear windows of your Jeep JK hardtop with a single RotopaX black storage pack and locking mount. Finish is raw aluminum so you can powdercoat or paint.

Includes:
1 RotopaX Black Storage pack
1 RotopaX locking mount with security key.
Stainless steel hardware

There really isn't much storage in that roto-thingy for US$400 plus shipping... I'm about eleventy percent sure the window isn't going to be anywhere near that cost seeing as rear windows with hardware are under AU$300...

Access to storage is always an issue, I reckon modding the stock windows to open upward like tradies windows on a ute canopy to access internal storage would be more worthwhile... Given the hardtop has no part of the vehicles structural integrity, modding it would be a breeze...

That's exactly what I want.

Given that hard tops have been known to crack around the holddown bolts with no extra load, I'd be a little concerned about the extra weight.

As we all know the roof is just to keep the elements out - definitely not structural.

IIRC the later hard tops ( bigger glass ) have slightly different moldings around the bolts so they are stronger in that area... but.....

I will buy two of these if somebody makes them at a reasonable price.
