Sunblock insert for clear tops

Anyone make one? My camaro had these neat inserts you could put into each t-top that blocked the sunlight entirely. They weren't the best crafted, but they at least matched the OEM interior exactly.

FWIW, I bought a "static cling" type sun blocker and it doesn't really stick to the roof well.

Here are 2 at MidAmerica. I think the 1st is the type you're asking about. The second is the cling type.

I've got the headliner one. I love it. It blocks all light, and makes things quieter in the cabin. The down side is that isn't made to pop in and out in a matter of seconds. It'll take you a few minutes to install it (although it does pop out with a tug).
