I put mine in the bag (Bestop) and hang on a screw on the garage wall behind my doors that hang.

Mine just hang in the garage and I never take them with me. Plastic clamps attached to a clothes hanger and clamped to the fabric.
Same here. I drill a hole in one end of a spring clamp then hang on a wall hook. I did the same with my JK for 4 years. Works great.

They do scratch easy but as others have said with a quality wax can buff a lot of scratches out. I prefer to clean mine by thoroughly rinsing them off then using a sudsy solution of car wash soap and water and gently rubbing a sponge full of soap suds in a back and forth motion followed by a thorough rinse.

As for storage, I ordered the Mopar storage bag with my 2022 Rubicon. It was cheap; $75. Others have said it was expensive. I don’t consider it as such. You do want your windows clean when you put them in the bag, not only to prevent scratching but to keep the bag clean too. I use my bag occasionally.

When I’m home and have the top down I just hang the windows on the garage wall on some hangers I built. The side windows go on a 2x4 hanger that I cut a 45 degree slot in where the bottom piece that clips into the belt rail on the tub would go. Then I cut a piece of pvc pipe and slide the rear window through it. It works really well. I can take another picture of my hangers if anyone wants a more close up view.

All, how do you store your soft top windows when they are off? Are they easily scratched? Wondering if I need to invest in a bag or just use some towels. Thanks.
I purchased a storage bag for my windows from BJD Customs. I hang the bag in the garage rather than keep it in the Jeep.

I use dress hangers and they have worked great for 3 years now! And hang them on hooks in the garage. They don't bend or scratch that way.

Added the factory widow bag for $75 when I ordered the Jeep. Works well hanging on the wall in the garage or squeezed into the limited space between the back seat and the tailgate. This bag is well made and does a great job of protecting the windows but it takes some practice and patience to get the three window panels in the bag and then into the back of a 2 door. Helps to read the instructions, something I hate to do!

In the Mopar bag under the bed/couch/something to keep them from getting stepped on. Impossible to completely prevent scratches, but I would rather keep them minimally scratched as long as I can.

So far, with the soft top in, I’ve never actually brought the windows with my off road. I figure in the event I do, and royally screw one up, I’ll use this set as my “off road windows” and eventually pony up for a fresh set sometime in the future… not something I’m looking forward to, but an option in a worst case scenario.
