If people can't get them from mopar or bestop, I could pop them off my 2023 and reverse engineer them and make them if there is enough interest.
Color me interested. 👍

Any new-news on a possible replacement part search for the Mopar 68430118AA Insert replacement part?

Figured I'd hit you up again on this since it'll be pretty popular once it's found.
The part # 68430118AA is still active and has not been replaced. There are also no descriptions matching this part in the 2022/2023 data.

Unrelated but there was a change made to the top design. I attached this info here if anyone is interested.

I'm in for some of these if you make them!

Benny--

Is this something that is available for retrofit...the new cable design? Also--is this a 4DR Soft Top change only?

Thank you for checking again on the insert. Fully understood that it's not available yet.

Cheers!

This must be a 4 door thing cause my 23 has the old standard bullet design.

also interested...for me, the most difficult part of putting those side windows back is getting them started on that slider...

There is one 2 Door part # for which it applies to as well. From my understanding there is no retrofit/upgrade without ordering the new top material. In addition here is a note from Mopar on this change:

The Soft Top Cover has a new design that does not have fabric tabs for the paddle brackets. The tabs for the paddle brackets are replaced with side roller brackets 68430140AA and 68430141AA. If old top has these fabric tabs you must also order roller brackets 68430140AA and 68430141AA for the new top

OrneryBear-- Any chance you are still interested in scanning/printing those soft-top guide inserts? I check Bestop once in awhile (and Mopar) and it seems like they aren't available after-market as a repair or replacement part. Still interested on my end! I can also help foot the bill for Labor/materials...

I've just not gotten around to it. I have a million things on the "let me just cad model this" list. This is simple enough I don't need to scan it, just measure it and cad it up.
