Default ))))clear top guys((((

driving today and it was pretty bright out. Was in the passing lane and noticed a white flashing to my right somewhere. It turns out the highway stripes as they went by were mirroring off my clear top above where the passenger sits at a perfect angle to my eye sight. No big deal but never noticed it before. I guess that's what the clear top inside covers are for??????? regards, paul

I've also noticed this. No big deal in my opinion. I also have the painted top. Never been on the car!

A sun shade inside cover for a clear top gives you the best of both worlds.

I got the dual covers. When the sun rises and the temp starts veering above 100F, you'll not only appreciate it but it'll become an absolute necessity!
