I have taken off the front panels on the hard top on my new JL and even with just these two pieces of driving at any decent speed creates a LOT of wind inside. Cant really find any suitable top of the windshield wind deflector for JL online. Any recommendations? Thanks!

Roll the windows down, and raise/open the back glass. It lets the air flow through better, and gentler.

Wear a hat. There isn't much you can do about that in a Jeep. @DaltonGang gave you the best options, but it won't completely cure it. Just enjoy the Jeep hair!

Put the two back windows down about 6 inches. Quiets right down.

I have JTOPS full shade and find it helps with wind noise with freedom panels removed.

Any half or full shade should help.

That's the best way to clean the interior after a long winter with 3 German Shedding Dogs;
Freedom Panels off, hair Tornado ! Clean in no time...

While it may not be your first "go to," if you're interesting in making your own please send me a private message. It will involve these tools and hardware.

I only took this step because this was towards the larger job of making a roof rack.
