[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 433863, member: 18789"] Yeah it’s some work getting an original soft top Jeep to accept a hardtop and do all the functions. You’ll need the dual squirter tank, and also i guess the extra sprayer itself. For whatever reason the hardtop sprayer is different from the windshield one. Not sure if the wiring is on there for the extra sprayer. It probably is, most front lighting harnesses I’ve seen have both plugs on them. The harness for the tub to top is about $80. Kind of a lot, but not all that terrible when you consider what it’s doing for you. You will need to drop the tank and pull the whole harness up through the tub hole and replace with the eBay one ideally. For me it’s no big deal to add the few applicable wires to do the defrost, but since you are missing all the hardtop wires, makes more sense to run the eBay harness and just make small repairs to it if needed.
