since GM has discontinued this product I am wondering if anyone needs these shades. I'm thinking of producing them reply with comments

I'd like to have some ttop shades for my car. I hate it when I'm driving at midday and the sun is right in my face. Do they just slide in there or what?

------------------
1986 Berlinetta, 2.8L, newly rebuilt 700R4, 3.42 Posi. 131K miles and counting, K&N air filters.

 

I wouldn't mind having a set myself, for an 84 Berlinetta. How do they stay on?
If you decide to sell these, let me know.

Count me in, how do they attach, any pics ??

 

One edge slides under the plastic moulding on the ttop, the other corners are held in place with velcro.

------------------

 

yeah, sounds like a great idea. I thought about making some myself, but hey, if your going to make them, I'll gladly buy 'em

 

My car had the shades included but since i am the third owner they are missing. does any members in New jersey have shades willing to lend them to me so I can get copies of them. reply or call 609 412 2107

 

hey i have the shades in my 87 iroc, they are great.if you have any questions about them, my e-mail is fastcamaro87@aol.com

 

I have the shades for my '90 Formula and there is no velcro. They just slide in and fit arounf the outside edge. They fit pretty tight so it's best to put them in when you put the T-tops in. Most of the time I leave mine out because they infringe on headroom. My liner is starting to sag though. So if someone were to produce them in quantity to cut the price down I'd be interested.

 

I always thought it would be nice to have a retractable style shade for the T's. Something that would mount at the rear above your head and be able to be pulled out and hooked into place at the front. Also be removable when necessary. (sort of like a mini of the cargo area cover)

I have the regular inserts and they're a pain in the *** if you ask me. I have to actually lift my tops off to insert them which sucks when you only need them part of the day.

Just my $.02

I've been looking for some for a long time.I'd buy some unless you really have to take the t-tops off to install or remove them.The retractable idea is great!!!!

 

I'd buy a set of shades. I've wanted them for a while. I almost just made some out of posterboard.. heh. Also been tempted to just get another set of T's and paint the inside of one set black.

I like having the sun in the car when its cold out.. but man it sucks when its burning hot outside!

 

I think I'm going to start searching for a set of pull out shades like they use on side windows. Maybe find a way to set them up as retractable shades.

I'll let you know how the search goes.

 

I have factory sun shades and they are not that compicated. If you a sheet of thin abs plastic or something thin and simi rigid, some headliner matterial and some spray glue. you could make them in about an hour or less. They are mostly held in place by the lip of the headliner around the t-tops and the t-top frame. However the factory did send velcro tabs to attach them to the t-top. just be sure that when you cut them out that the edge doesn't show when installed. ( tacky )
