As a continuation of this previous thread:

Soft-Top Jeep Wranglers May Soon Be Unavailable in California

We have learned that the soft-top Wrangler will be exempt from California's "Cool Cars" rules.

:
Soft-top convertible Jeep Wrangler fans breathe easy: you will still be able to buy one in the Golden State.

The California Air Resources Board said Friday that when it issues its final "cool car" regulations, which will require vehicles to reduce the amount of heat entering vehicles starting in the 2012 model year, it will exempt soft-sided plastic windows.

"The Cool Cars regulation only applies to rigid windows and will not affect the flexible glazing on vehicles such as the Jeep Wrangler," the board said.

"If the plastic windows are rigid, they must comply with the same standards as glass windows, beginning with the 2012 model year."
