Default Hard top with soft doors?

Will a 4dr with soft doors work with a hard top (2008)?
Anybody know for sure?
Thanx Rubidon.

Know for sure? No, can't say that 100%. But logically they will, and they did on my TJ.

Figure it this way:
Soft doors work on Jeep with soft top and door surrounds.
Wife's JK came with hard doors and soft top with door surrounds.
JK now has hardtop, and hard doors fit.

Hence, the soft doors will fit with a hard top.

As long as the soft doors have the rubber for the surrounds yes.
