Had one on my 78. Worked "ok" a real pain to take out and clean. Dust and stuff would get between the plexiglass insert and the glass causing one to take it out and clean it. It did make the car look cool though with the tinted rear window.

I have one but its tough to store if not in the rear window and it gets scratched up. As far as fit it popped in ok and didn't rattle around with the tee tops out. . Its ok but not as dark as I would like and didn't make a noticeable difference in heat deflection. I am going to have the rear window tinted dark.
