had anyone thought about putting a curtain in the back where the convertible plastic window is. since we cant get the window tinted. the curtain will help block out the sun and privacy

Hey Piojo , you're right! Would be less expensive, and it's your car, if you think it will do what you want it to do and looks good to you....Just do it!    Make sure you post pics if you make it happen! However, I have seen the tinted windows on the soft top and they are SWEET!

There have been a few folks that used the spray tint and did their own. I haven't tried it, and won't on a good top, but if I had an old one laying around I'd give it a shot just to see if it would peel off after being folded a few times.

Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of.
