How long until someone figures out a fix / tweak / mod to pull the rear soft top window tight?

Also keep in mind that as the weather cools, the top and windows will shrink slightly and tighten up. Hit 55 here a few weeks ago and the windows were noticibly flatter.

In picked up my Bronco two days ago. Love it, soft top and all. I also have a Wrangler and its side windows are pretty flat and free of wrinkles, but the rear window sucks. It has waves in it. It’s a bigger deal for me because I look through it all the time. It’s older so partially wear related.

I was concerned before picking up my bronco that the side windows would bug me, but they don’t. Not in the least. I had a plan to immediately look at them to see if I could figure some way to pull them tighter, but now that I have it, I just don’t care. of course, if someone does have a way I will consider it, but it’s a non issue for me

And… the tilt up back window is actually pretty great. It is quick and simple and will keep the back window tight for the future. It also opens much wider than I expected. Very pleased with how it works.

This Bronco thing is freaking awesome!

I absolutely hate this crappy soft top. One of my side panels works fine when I take it on and off. The other side bunches up and no matter how hard I pull it, I’m left about 1/4 inch short on one end. I can’t get it to fit in the groove like it’s supposed to, so I’ve got one panel not connected fully on the side. Lot of fun in the rain so far. Piece of junk.

Try snapping in the lower corner first, then tug and snap as you work up the window. I had a bit of trouble, in the beginning, as well.

Im unbothered. I ma bothered about the softop touching the roll bars

Look in the Digital Owner's Manual for the soft top info. A Technical Service Bulletin video was put out as to where/how to apply soft velcro to prevent scratches on the sports tube. ( I initially found this info in an e-mail from Ford.)
