Hello

Could one of you fine gentleman or ladies do me a solid . I’m looking for the measurement of rear side window in a hard top from a 2012 - 2018.

I am looking at the Rebel Off Road rear side window delete panels and was thinking of trimming to fit my 2008.
Just wondering how much trimming is involved . Windows are a little trapezoid shaped so centreline measurement would be great .
Thank You

Thank You @JeepJeezy .
Much appreciated .
2008 windows are
23 3/4 X 16 3/4
Inside dimensions are
21 1/4 x. 14 1/4.
So quite a sizeable lip for adhering glass or insert .

Rotopax 2 gallon is 18x13
Looking at pics the Rotopax fits quite snugly in the window delete panel .

So in theory it should fit once trimmed to size . Would order the set without lighting option .

Just watched it .
The pinch backing strips will need to be trimmed as well
Def plan was to bring in to have glass removed but will install myself . Going to use glass as template .
Think it will work out well
Have a couple other things to take of before I pull the trigger .

Thanks @JeepJeezy .
Looking at the design . Top of support bolts to the roof .
Where other models bolts to the gutter above window .
The 08-11 doesn’t have gutter above rear side windows .
Would def be easier install .
Kinda like the cleaner line of the Rebel Offroad as it’s sunken into the window opening . Will have to think about it . Thanks again.
Much appreciated .

The gutter above that window started in 2018 with the JL. The JK gutter stops at rear doors and never went any further. Rebel definitely is a cleaner look. You're welcome. Keep us posted!
