I am sure I am not the only one experiencing a whistle from the hardtop. My question is... has anytime come up with s solution to eliminate the whistling?

Don't have the issue on my current JLUR, but have you tried removing the Freedom Panels and applying something like 303 Protectant (or any plastic/rubber conditioner) to all of the rubber seals?

mine whistled for about two seconds before they flew off when I forgot to secure them when loading the Jeep on vacation. HaHa laughing to keep from crying. You may want to take them off and re-seat them.

I have tried to reach-seat them and did not make any difference.

I've ALWAYS thought this was going to happen in real life to myself. I'm sorry I lol'd at this reply.

I am almost positive it is from the hardtop. I can hear it near the top of the windshield.
I did some testing today. I took the tops off individually and the whistling is still there. So, it’s not coming from the hardtop.
