Mine stays out all the time. I have been laying it were the T-Tops go, but will probably start using the tray. (I never noticed the tray until about six months ago.)

Default removable rear window guy's ? ? ?

Tray always- I make sure I have it and my t-tops in the car. My
wife and I went for a sunday drive a couple of years ago. The
weather man said SUNNY, SUNNY and more sun shine. Need I say
he told a big one . The only thing we had going was the wipers . I
was able park under an over pass.

above your rear compartment area, you should have a latch or something to pull it down.

You can still find them used. No one reproduces them.
