I have a 4-door Black Diamond. It came with the OEM roof rack in combo with the "new" MIC roof. And it arrived JUST in time for me to pick it up for Halloween.
Here's an observation that I'd love to have confirmed/refuted by anyone else with that combo. There is almost NO room for removing the front panels with the rack installed.
They will come off, but it's a very fiddly process to get them out between the frame and the rail. The pin that goes into the frame bracket does NOT want to go past the bolt on the rail, and I've already gouged up the plastic covers on the clip brackets.
When I watch the video from Bronco Nation, they seem to come off very easily. Is the "new" MIC roof thicker than the original version?
Wish they'd given us another ½ inch of clearance on the rails. Would have made all the difference.
