Default What is this?
Noticed a pinhole of light from inside the jeep, went outside and noticed this.
Is it something I did possibly or a defect in the top? I have 2k miles. It's not scratched anywhere.

Have you been camping? Could be a hole from hot ash landing on the roof.

I got two holes just like that in mine. I think I did it when putting the top up and down, but heavy rain and all I haven't had any water inside yet

I had something like that on my jeep when I got it and I brought it in and they replaced the top under warranty

Looks like someone put the top down on a hot nail or something like that. Could very easily be ash burns as the other have said.

You could try warranty replacement, or just use some camping tent seam sealer. Works great.
