All T-Top Guys without overhead consoles.
Haven't seen this done before, so here you are. Our visors are curved and I had one of these cd holders left over from a previous vehicle. Low and behold I can carefully wedge it under the headliner on both sides of the middle pillar and it stays there. I have not used anything to hold it in besides that. Seems to stay fine, just gotta tighten it up once in a while.
Anywayz, here's the picture.

The straps are just wedged in between the headliner and the body. The straps are velcro, and the hook side sticks pretty good while the loop side tends to slide out once in a while. I'll try to get a picture tonight.

It looks ok there. I keep my cd case under my driver seat so its outta the way and theres no reall risk of the cds warping due to heat. I'd imagine it would get reall hot in that area of the roof.

Not as hot as say having the CD's in direct sunlight though. It takes a decent amount of heat to warp a CD. And even then you'd need to have them in direct sunlight for the most part.
Unless ofcourse you live in a VERY hot place where temps regularly exceed 110 degrees in open air. Then I could see the temperature in the car getting hot enough to melt the CD's

Much more than by direct sunlight. Why don't you step in front of a radar dish for a few seconds? Come back and tell us how you feel.

Well I didn't get pictures last night.
But in reply to some of the messages, you really can't see the cd's, one because I have tint on the windows, and two the only way you could possibly see them is if you're crouched down beside the car.
As was stated earlier I don't have a problem with them warping. They are not in direct sunlight, so it's just like having them in any other cd case in the car.
No, I don't have a problem with them falling out as they face forward so the only time they could fall out is under very heavy braking, but I've had them up there for three years and I have yet to dislodge any of them.

yeah, i've done it a few times, i've never put them in for any longer than 5 seconds though... i have 3 of them hanging on the wall right beside me. they make a neat pattern. but no i've never had one or heard of one actually blowing up

IT should be a microwave dish.
