Anyone got a temporary window setup for that rare occasion where you leave the car outside overnight or something? I don't have a garage, the car lives in the enclosed trailer, but there will be the odd day where I need the trailer for something else... C5 FRC btw.

Wreck Wrap adhesive plastic sheeting. Also called collision wrap. Some people have made elaborate velcro/snap cover things, but I trimmed off all those ares they normally attach them to.

Have searched and come up with ZIP?

Planing on using the glass and finding some old actuators and try to make it "temporary" ?

C5 Corvette Car Covers

Just a thought, this is how I used to keep my old Alfa track car secure.

Clear shower curtain plastic cut to the template of the window, velcro, staples, and glue.

Glue the velcro in the channel along the roof and on the outward facing side of the inner door panel. Glue the other half of the velcro along the edge of the plastic window and then staple it every couple of inches for good measure. Simple, cheap, and easy to replace.
