YJ full steel door... anyway to seal the gap left between rollbar and door ?

heya guys i just put a bikini top and rear net on my YJ ... however there is a large gap between the door and rear rollbar that people can throw thrash in through (yes this is a issue hahaha city life comes with its own curious problems) ... are there any products that extend the rounded full steel doors to be just a tap longer and cover this small gap ? i see new wranglers are made with this in mind with squared doors that reach all the way to the rear bars.

thx

There is no door surround option for the YJ with full steel doors.

Bestop addressed this issue with their Halftop, but if you have separate components (it sounds like you have them), there's no fix.

yes it was nailer,it works nicely. just take sheetmetal and cut it to the size you need then get adhessive spary and find and old soft top. cut the soft top to fit the sheetmetal and then glue it on, really simple and easy most time consuming is waiting for the glue to fully dry. found it here you go yj door surrounds pics are gone but you can get the idea
