i wouldn't think you'd be able to see out of it.
maybe all you would see is lights but not actual shapes of anything? if you do try it though, let us know how it works. i'm interested to see.

Those are for normal hatch cars, and anyway, you don't want those cockroach looking monstrosities on your car.

Those posts were from 2003 & I hope he didn't do it. Completely irreversible on plastic without clouding the plastic. I suppose it MIGHT be able to be polished back out, but I doubt it.

Never seen any louvers for a 'vert, only for a hardtop.
