Just saw this picture today. You can see the wiper but can't tell if it has the rear defroster grid on the rear glass.

I agree. The majority of the tops I've seen is quite a bit darker than this one. This shade looks terrible with the Rapid Red.

Here's a shot of the inside of the back window on the 2 door "Badlands" that was at the Super-Cel West. Clearly shows the defrost element in the glass.

As an OU (Oklahoma alum), I think that is a pretty sharp combo!

Been in Arizona for 14 years now and have difficulty remember why you would ever need to defrost a window, haha

I'm pretty sure rear defroster will be standard on all models. Even base model Kias come with them.

And I agree about that top. That has got to be the worst representation of the MIC top I have seen. Makes me consider a color matched hard top even more.
