Blackout Panel for a Targa Top
I found two products to use for blocking the sun when using a targa top and was wondering if anyone has tried them. One is a Vinyl covering that is held on by static cling, the other is a panel that is covered in a headliner material and just snaps in place. They are sold by Mid America Motorworks.
I just bought the car and it only has the targa top. I'm a little worried about the heat while parked in the summer time. The car was traded to a dealer and I don't know the owner, but I ran the codes and the car left the factory with a regular hardtop. The dealer is going to help me see if the orginal top is still around, I hope to end up with it.
The original owner may have been a member of the flying roof club, I don't know yet.
Do any other companies make anything to place inside the targa top?

Bot the panel with the headliner material a few years ago from Mid-Am and it works very well but leaves 1/8 inch gap around the outside. I think they charge too much but not much of an alternative outside of painting the top.
