Congrats cobblecrazy- looks good!

This is a cool option for the JK- especially those of us that want to bring along our yaks.




any reason one rear window is solid and the other glass? Minimizing a blind spot?

I kinda remember seeing glass was an option so maybe it was illustrating that?

Both mine are glass. It was an option. At first I was going to keep it solid, but I found I liked the additional view points.

Nice looking rig. Can you share your initial impressions of the J30? Did you get a chance to use it over the weekend? Did you have anything modified as part ofthe install?

Thanks,

Kelly

Thanks. I camped in it on the way home. I really like the design. Much more comfortable than I thought, and plenty of space to sleep in. It gives me the option of camping just about anywhere, but also allows me to pull into any hotel along the way if the trip is a "mixed" affair. I had a box with all my camping gear, a clothes bag, and an ice chest. It was easy to pull those things out and place them in a bear box so it was easier to move around inside if I wanted to (easier to get the dog around in there as well). The only mods/add ons were the two side windows. They suggested putting up some cardboard on the stock rear side windows and drive around to see if you really used them, and I found I used them more than I thought plus it wasn't much for each window.

Looking good Cobblecrazy. What did UMV charge for the side window "upgrades" if you don't mind me asking and did they come tinted? Is the rear glass tinted?

it was $250 per window. Not bad for them making the cut, the glass, and the install. There is a slight tint to them, but I might go with a little more. I'm sure if I would have asked, they could have gotten them darker prior to install - don't know what that would have cost.
