They responded the following: All the brands of windshield channels are interchangeable. It looks like everyone is out of stock except Bestop… (don’t get the OEM or supertop version) **Q: Can u put ur top on over this** A: No because it attaches where your hard top would **Q: I have a Mopar soft top on my wrangler, no weather strip or seal on windsheild. Would this do the job? Wind noise and air gap are there now!** A: The header is bolted to the windshield and has a channel in it for your top to slide into, but your top needs to have the lip on it that slides into the channel to cut out the wind and this also forms weather protection.
