It's a great thing to have, especially for a vert. I use mine all the time for the all-windows-up and down. Highly recommended.

I bought a used one here from CF member and that was really cheapest added value to my FRC.
100% recommendation.
P.S. might be a good idea to search from C5 Parts For Sale. Make sure that you get instruction leaflet with purchase because there is a PIN code that you need in order to program your window valet.
good luck!

Excellent item to have. I used to put the top back on then had to crawl back in to put the windows up. Also when it is hot it is nice to open the windows as I walk up to it and let the hot air blow out some before getting in.
