If they had this for my Sky I may not have my C6. Getting in and out for the manual top process is why I hated that car. Need to have the key in to roll the windows up or down. A power top was a must for me. If you have a non power top you need this. I may get one anyway as it is cool. I am looking for a trailer now and if I get one that the fenders are fixed I will need one for both cars. A tilt bed is the best for a Vette but they don't seem to have removable left fenders. A place that make them near Centralia make a nice one. I am going to talk to them about making that mod when they build mine. If not I will need these.

Takes minutes to install, plugs into the OBD port under the steering wheel. No tools required.
That's false advertising. It only takes a couple seconds to install.

As far as I'm concerned, if you live in any state where the sun shines and it gets more than 73 degrees, this is the best mod on the planet. Had one on my 2000 C5, had one on my 2003 C5, and got one now on my 2012 C6 Grand Sport.

Spend a few bucks and get a Window Valet. You will never regret it...and no, I'm not a paid spokesman.

Nice thing it does if you live in the hot weather when both windows are up, it will crack your windows down to vent the heat from your car using the key fob switch.

Everything works great on my Grand Sport BUT I have not been able to get the "Subtle Alarm" to work (when somebody grabs the handle to open the door)...it doesn't beep when I tested it without my keys with me like it's supposed to.

Any guidance would be appreciated in getting that working.
Read the instructions, it tells you how to activate the feature, including the "unlock on brake" feature. I activated both on my C6 this evening.
