Mine were not put in when I bought the car but I have them sitting in a closet for when I do. It came with a set of 4 adhesive velcro dots that affix to the T-top and the shade so you can take em off quickly.

I don't think it would look good with the dots there when the T-tops are out.

Brand New they are pretty expensive. I got mine for free from a wrecked T/A.

I like them pretty good and they def save the interior from getting smokin hot.

Thanks for the help

Yeah, hope you find what you're looking for. At least you know a good negotiating price range now.

Check the local "Pick n pull" junk yards. Chances are you'd find a good set for about $10-20 for a pair. They are not revered by junk yards as something of a high interest pull.

yeah i'll look at my local junk yard too but i don't mind paying a little money either

**BIG GUNS** · 07-27-2008, 03:02 PM

Whatever works I reckon.

I just use mine without the velcro. They still slide into and stay in place perfectly. The only difference is they don't stay attached to the top when you remove it.

The Paddock has them for 35 bucks a pair

**suede** · 07-28-2008, 07:59 PM

Cali what color are they?

**johnb** · 07-29-2008, 12:55 AM

I just checked their website, and they only list charcoal. You might want to phone them and ask if they have any more color options.

This is for the 93 to 02. The other years have a few more options.

**BIG GUNS** · 07-29-2008, 03:13 AM

how about covering them with some colored vinyl? Maybe can do it yourself or take it to an upholstery shop. I would only do the interior side though. Leave the window side natural as they might blister, catch on fire etc......lol.

I bought mine off E-bay for $20 & $15 S/H They were new and came with velcro. I did not use them because I like to take the shade out at night most of the time I take the whole T-top out at night I bought some extra velcro just to see how they looked and worked and I was able to place the velcro on the T-tops just enough so I would not see them if the shades were out & that worked pretty good too

**BIG GUNS** · 07-29-2008, 02:02 PM

Since it's been so damn hot in STL, I have been just leaving mine in and staying away from the light. Feels much cooler in the car with them on and it looks bad ass with the interior all dark n shit.......lol.

**30th ws6** · 09-10-2008, 01:04 PM

Twoolley....how much you want for them? Are they the factory t-top shades in tan or did you have them covered as mentioned above. I was unaware that GM even made tan ones. Let me know.
