So there is this place in Canada making a clear panel that replaces the front to panels over the driver and passenger.

Has any one tried this? I am guessing it is harder to take on and off.
There is also the Putco Element Sky View Clear Hard Top Panel. The look about the same. But is one better?

I would be very interested to know if this is any good. The Putco Element has the hardware holes sunk into the shell, which would cause it to gather standing water.

I'm not trying to be disrespectful to this company but this seems like the worst of both worlds? You get all the heat from the sun with none of the fresh air? Sure, you can take the top off but you can do the same with the factory hard top. I have a Sunrider and there are times when I want the shade/quiet of the top being closed and seems like you can't accomplish that with this top. Maybe I'm missing something, but I'm just not seeing the appeal.

Both are kinda pricy so I would not want to pay so much for something with no reviews.

Kavaca 65% ceramic film will block nearly all sun heat with zero haze.

Are the 2DR and 4DR front panels identical? I didn't think they were, but their compatibility says both.

Edit: their Bronco generations patches are kinda awesome. Needs a 2DR 6G though to be perfect.

It gives one the seldom seen view of bird waste from the under side.

Light weight piano roofs are extremely rare not to mention that should get damaged with rocks etc. would definitely tint interior and get film on exterior at that price.
