Default Rain guards?

Is there anyone that makes the window / rain guards for the C3 Corvette? Lots of places SAY they will custom make them, but no dice yet.

Not sure how you would attach the guard on a C-3? On my truck they are attached to the upper door frame by sticky tape that a C-3 doesn't have. I don't drive my 72 in the rain so won't need them.

If you find a good option, please report back.

My interior fan puts out almost no air- not enough to even defog the window without the windows open. And given the unpredictable Seattle weather I can't always ensure that I just don't drive in the rain.
