I haven't had any issues with my rear window going nuts until the other day, it was popping flopping around like a 5 year old juked up on sugar, called Bestop and they are sending a new and improved rear window that has added velcro.
Just now I removed the back windows to go out topless tonight, when walking back over to the Jeep I noticed the right rear corner piece was crooked, I assumed it was going to take some force to put it back in place but to my surprise it was very loose, the screw was less than hand tight, checked the other side and same thing.
I know 100% that they got tightened very well during install as I went back and checked all the bolts prior to fitting the fabric.
I'm not going to put the windows back on and test it but I feel fairly confident that the loose parts are the culprit of the window problem, I'm out of blue locktight or I would have used that on the screws to be sure they don't wiggle loose again.
