Soft top and bikini top at same time?

Is there a way to have the soft top and the Bikini top bar on at the same time, so that I don't have to keep the bar at home and screw it on every time. Instead I can just pop the soft top down and put the bikini top on right away without worrying about that window bar?

rail

So if I got a drill able header, I can put the soft top over the rail and it will fit correctly?

thanks for the quick reply.

The only solution I've found is the Spiderweb mesh top. Not good for rain but if you are only looking for shade it will allow you to leave it up and close to soft top when it rains.

misread

The drill channel is made to stay on all the time, the full top isn't affected by it at all.

I'd say like 60% of the TJ's and XJ's I see on craigslist are V6's, I had no idea so many people were doing random unnecessary swaps .

I've got a sunlighter bikini that i keep strapped on under my Supertop, I just loosen the main strap, take the front part out of the header, put my softop back in the header and tighten the bikini top back up, it's a little low, but I'm short so it ok

Where can you order this SpiderWeb mesh top from, I have been just looking for something like this, I don't need anything that will block the rain, because I don't take the top down when there is a chance for that. But I am sick of getting my head sunburned, and I can't where a hat because it will just blow off.

My mistake. You're right. Bikini is not Safari.
