I am not 100% sure. Best bet, Give The Pelican Parts parts specialists a call at 1-888-280-7799. They can check part numbers to see if the same.

Yes the 97-04 hardtops are interchangeable. There is a minor difference in the 97 hardtops in the way the roof rack mounts. You will need to install spinlocks.
