Bummer about those rear windows not being removable. I was under the impression they were when I purchased. Due to be in for delivery in a couple weeks.A couple updates as I just got access to it again from PDI.
The sound deadening is not magnetic. It has two Velcro strips and two push pins.
Also I see no way to remove the side windows. I may be missing something but I have searched around the entire edge and do not see the same system that’s on the White MOD top to remove them.
Just what I was thinking. Perhaps same maker as the Wrangler top, which would not be a bad thing. It will last. Who knows with the MIC top.
Why do they have to state the obvious "manual swing gate" as if there is or could some day be a "power swing gate" ? ??I can only hope that the black painted hardtop is an OPTION for the Big Bend - earlier post showed it is not an OPTION - but below shows that it is an OPTION and it does not show that it is limited to the 4-door:

Look two lines below it at the line with the " Manual Swing-gate with additional Exoskeleton Reinforcement -with up to 150-degree swing " line - that line is presumably for the Raptor version, so they had to create a differentiation for it for "regular" models and Raptor models.....and it's a manual swing gate, not sure what else you'd call it.
"Non-folding tailgate"
It could be both really. It may be somewhat better than MIC, but could also be a perceived "so much better" because it appears it's a higher quality product inside and out (finished interior rather than exposed)
Eh, I'd rather have the swing gate with the wheel on it vs having to swing out a tire fully every time and then opening the gate.
MIC - Molded In Color (standard hard top)
Correct they’ve been available on builds since the start of Job 2 for 24’s but I don’t see them available yet to order from your local parts at your dealership
