No. The factory hardtop opening is wider than the tailgate, this barn door is the same width as the tailgate.
I did some design work on a barn door for factory TJ/LJ hardtops some years ago but never built a prototype.
Well instead of paying my buddy to do it, he doesn't have the time at the moment, he spent an hour teaching me all about proper body fill techniques. So now I'm restoring the plastic fenders for my jeep which aren't available for purchase any more.
Couple for days of wiping and sanding and they will be ready for primer. Its like sculpting in a sense.

I hear you. I have since replaced all bulbs with ones from super Brite leds, made a huge difference enough to counteract the gray lenses.

Gr8Tops omitted many features I designed and implemented for LJ/TJ Safari Cab (removable side panels/optional roll-up soft sides, ability to run only the roof with no sides or rear walls, rear wiper/washer and defroster, easy-install hardtop wiring kit for Jeeps without hardtop wiring, roll-bar roof rack support brackets to support large weights on roof racks, etc.)
If the JK/JKU Safari Cab is to go to market I would like it to include most or all of the features I designed for it.

There is a CJ8 with a world cab in a town 30 mins from me. It's tucked away behind someones garage, but I am like an eagle driving through towns, and spot LOTS of old jeep'ness.
