Not yet. The upcoming mod top for the 4dr with removable side glass is the closest you will get for the time being
2 door mod tops have the removable windows too but wish Ford would have just done sliders.

No sliding windows yet that I've seen. There is a company making some solid doors that replace the windows.

Oh yea?! I guess I misunderstood the documents that got released a few months back… or maybe only saw that they had the 4dr as the prototype

It’s too bad that they probably will never release a conversion kit for us OG’s

Even if they don't put it in kit form, you'd still be able to buy all the pieces as replacement parts and do your own conversion.

Nope, velox off road is doing the gull wings but no slider windows on the market that I have found.

One dumb design decision. (There really are few to me....) But have none of them ever had a pickup with opening rear window? How do you not do something about that? Part of what made me just go for the softie....

4 doors removable glass, 2 doors removable glass and gunners hatch. IIRC the shadow black 4 door was the only one that was presented back in NY and then the walkthrough with Esteban before it went all Keyser Soze on us. I don't know about a conversion down the road, if I can find a 2 door MIC we can get measurements/pics to see if it's possible but no clue on part numbers/price.

Someone did a glass removal walk through and It looked as if the window “pockets” were a different depth… could be the extra hardware involved.. only time will tell if it’s something that we can Modify.

A year back, there were rumors of the 2DR glass being too big and unwieldy to make removable… but come to think of it, have we even seen a 2DR Mod Top with the glass removed in the real world!? Or is this a unicorn at this point

This is where @Ducati1098 or @flip might be able to lend a hand - I’m going to guess that Ford/Webasto have not designed the MIC and MOD top parts to be interchangeable

I've got nothing to add. Couple other members asked about this and parts catalogue still doesn't show anything. We have a HEL coming in and when it hits I can try to find some engineering numbers and take some measurements.

I'm ready to experiment!

We’ve had a handful of 2 door Mod tops come in. They are removable. The top “gunner” hatch that comes off also is pretty cool.

I’m not sure about being interchangeable. I didn’t pay too much attention to the window pockets of the top itself, but my best guess is it isn’t possible.

Lol, yes they are unicorns but I have one parked in my driveway! Come visit us in the Heritage thread, plenty of pics:

https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/heritage-edition-bronco-club.64445/

The rear windows do have an inside "frame" on the lip that the glass attaches to so it's different. If that's interchangable someone could test it out and see if it'll fit.

This one isn't mine but shows you what I'm talking about:
