Default Help. Please

Where can you get black tinted t-tops for a 1982 Vette. This may be stupid but is it a option to tint the original glass t-tops

Default blk tint t tops

Try astro tops. Years ago I got one of their glass roofs that went across the entire t-top section and it did eliminate the leakage problem but it only looked good on a black car. It was made like a targa. It was a one piece black shaded or tinted piece. They had a great idea but needed to fine tune it. I will look around garage and attic and see if i still have it. I know excatly where the mounting hardware is , just dont remeber where I packed the top at....
