No, you need the door rails for it to fit properly. The hook/latches just fold down a little. The bikini has an extra piece of fabrick to keep the top from rubbing through where the hook/latches.

I have it and you definately need the rails and stuff. I don't have the door rails and the fit sucks.
Yours will look and fit a ton better because you have the soft top stuff already.

Hate to say it, but that's one piss poor fit all the way around. Besides that, you can drive a semi truck through the driver's side of the wind jammer. Had that same set up on my TJ and it fit much better that what I see in the pics above....

I agree... I bought some soft top material and I'm going to augment and design a better windjammer... I just need to get the rear gate bar and clips so the duster fits better. Right now water pools in the middle.
I'm not sure what they were smoking at Bestop when they came up with that windjammer. The top part totally blocks your view. Plus it barely fits when you have the seats back, it's like they made it for a 12 year old boy to sit in the front seat because you have to have the seat all the way forward and at a 90 degree angle.

It has nothing to hold it down. All the descriptions on all the websites say it runs down to the floor, but it doesn't. I'm actually talking to Quadratec and Bestop about it now, but of course thay have no idea what I'm talking about.
So without the extention, it'll just flop around.
