Default Clear Top Headliner ?

Those with Clear Tops does anyone have a Headliner to keep out the Sun? I took mine off and kind of like the Clear View?

I have seen a pop-in headliner on Ebay for $59.99 plus shipping.

I bought the vinyl cling one with the holes in it. $25.

I'm very happy with it. Of course, I'm in Ohio, we don't get as much sun and hot days as you do.

Have the same one.Does an acceptable job with the Florida sun but certainly not as good as a solid insulated top.

Don't waste your time or money on the panel that MidAmerica sells. I found it to be useless. Didn't fit well, even after trimming, and wouldn't stay in place without sagging.

Live well,

I am assuming my 85 has a OEM sun screen as it is made of metal and has holes in it. It appears undamaged after the fly away incident. Should I remove it before trading in the core on a new one? How do you remove it?
