I bought the Jeep top. Works great with my 2004 TJ. Bought it on ebay. A
good place other than ebay is www.dodgeparts.com. Their price is $155
plus shipping.

Re: Bikini Top Recommendations 04 TJ
 
There are 2 Choices

NO Soft top
1)Bestop the Header Bikini no.BES5252515 but you will need Header
system no. BES5123501. This makes a tight seal and keeps you dry. No
drilling and seals like an soft top.

If you Have a soft top
2) The mopar or bestop standard bikini comes with a rail that you
screw into the inside of the jeep. This leaves gaps so when it rains
you get soaked. BUT If you have a soft top as well this is the
solution since you can leave the bikin top on with the softop. When
it rains you put on the soft top and stay dry.

I have the OEM soft top and a Bestop standard bikini (w/ the rail riveted on
the windshield frame). It can let in a bit of water during heavy rains
that's for sure. However, I'm not sure how you'd put the soft top up with
the bikini on... the clips to connect the front of the soft top to the
windshield frame couldn't be fastened unless you cut some holes in the
bikini... maybe I'm missing something.

I should have said that you would not have to take the rail off as in
the other bestop system. "you can leave the bikin top on with the
softop" should have read "you can leave the "RAIL For the bikini top
on with the softop"
