I have the solid one and love it. You no longer can see out of it, but you don't look like a smurf either. It may take a few attempts to put it on and get the air bubbles out, but it's a good mod for 20 bucks

You didn't REALLY paint a glass top did you?

You can't believe how much cooler it is now in the hot sun. AND it gave the LS1 10 more horsepower to boot!

The glass top is great, but it sure does let the heat in during the summer. I think the liner you can buy would be a good addition to the car. The other alternative is to get a solid top. Getting the liner is a whole lot cheaper and it you don't like it, just take it off.

I hated the plastic and wanted more sound deading so I purchased a used one on E-Bay and put a black vinal top on it. I looks great with the Bowling Metalic Green color of my 2000. When I go home tonight I'll try to post a link where you can see it. I posted here before the site was redone so I suspect the pictures are gone.
