Were all t tops supposed to come with sun shades?

I've got a 90 Camaro RS with heavy, smoked glass t tops with the mirror finish on the inside. These are the t tops that measure 30.25" on the leading edge that tucks into the t top bar (which I think are C&C t tops IIRC?) and have no edge material around the outside. I've seen posts about t tops having sunshades as well, but AFAIK my car did not come with these. Was this a factory option on top of t tops or should all t tops have come with a pair of sunshades?

I am not real familiar with Camaros, but I have owned a lot of Firebirds and the only T-tops shades I have ever had were for my 2002 Trans Am. My 1991, 1991, and 1992 Firebirds didn't have them, unless they were lost along the way.

I am the 3rd owner of my car. If my Bird did come with them, one of the two before me lost them. I did get the original t-top bag so maybe not. Does anyone know where to find them? I lightly checked Hawks but didn't see anything from a glance. I can check again.
