It absolutely can. I live in Michigan and we get a lot of snow here! I've parked my 2000 Jeep Wrangler outside year round for the last 10 years. The soft top was pretty dull after about 5 years, because I've always lived on dirt roads and the dirt tends to scratch the plastic up, especially when you take the top up and down as often as I do. I finally broke down and replaced the soft top this spring because I couldn't see through the rear window anymore, but the soft top was still completely water-proof after 10 years.
You can buy replacement tops with or without the hardware (it's cheaper if your hardware is intact and you only replace the skins). I replaced only the skins and it was quite an easy job.
Happy Jeepin'!!

Weather that can damage a jeep soft top window is extreme winds and hail. If it is soiled, you can properly clean your jeep's soft top windows with some regular glass cleaner and paper towels.

As long as you have had a soft top on before and have the door surrounds it will fit right on they are both Jeep wrangler TJ. The soft tops are the same from 1997 to 2006.
What other years will my 1999 jeep soft top fit!
No
Yes.. the body already has the mounting holes for the top. I originally bought my Jeep with soft top and then got a used hardtop. No issues - just be sure to remove the soft top mounting hardware.
No, they mount differently.
A hard top or soft top?
You lick it!
