Softop part help.

[EagleJL]

I broke this bullet shaped piece on my side window. Does anyone know where I can order one or a part number? TIA!

This is the response I received when I asked AI:


This object is the soft top window slider guide (often called the "bullet" guide). It is attached directly to the rigid plastic channel sewn into your factory Jeep Wrangler JL or JLU soft top windows. It helps line up and slide the window into the door rails. [1, 2, 3]
Mopar does not sell this small plastic piece by itself. There is no individual Mopar part number for just the plastic tip. According to factory diagrams, it is only sold as part of a complete replacement window assembly. [1]
You have two main options to fix it:

Option 1: Buy the Entire Mopar Window Assembly
If you want an official factory part, you must replace the entire window panel. The part numbers depend on the side of your vehicle and the fabric type:

Side	Premium Black Twill Material	Standard Diamond/Black Vinyl Material
Driver Side (Left)	Mopar Part	Mopar Part
Passenger Side (Right)	Mopar Part	Mopar Part

Option 2: Use an Inexpensive Alternative Fix (Recommended)
Since buying a whole new window assembly is very expensive for just a missing plastic tip, most Wrangler owners fix this problem in one of two ways: [1]

• Contact Bestop Customer Service: Bestop is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) that actually builds the factory soft tops for Jeep. Jeep owners on the Wrangler Forums have successfully called Bestop Customer Service at 1-800-845-3567. If you ask for the "white window slider guide caps", their team can often ship you a packet of just the individual replacement caps without forcing you to buy a whole window. [1]
• Universal Vinyl End Caps: You can buy a pack of 1/4-inch round white vinyl end caps or screw protectors from a hardware store. Sliding one over the raw plastic rail prevents it from ripping your soft top fabric.

Those mopar part numbers come back to Durango headlamps and "multimedia" parts, and a Ram 1500 spare tire winch cover

Ain't AI great!!

Thanks for the fact check. I'll leave the post up, but please disregard the part numbers that AI produced. I mainly liked the Bestop Customer Service option/number, which does appear to be correct.

I did a google search to find the correct part numbers and they vary based on which window and which material the top is, and whether it's tinted or not.

That number is on Bestop's customer service page, it's a real #

I kinda understand how people that get the shit beat out of them by their partners keep going back watching idiots keep just blindly posting AI responses to stuff.

LIke seriously how fucking hard would it ahve been to double click one of those part numbers, right click and search to see that NONE of them are what dude is looking for.

I mean that's literally all I did. Double left click, right click "Search <num> on web" and "Oh look, this is a headlight for a fucking Durango"

And like the source in #1 there links right to a thread on THIS VERY WEBSITE with a GOOD PART NUMBER
