Anyone out there have any experience using one of these? IAP offers them for $90 and it looks like it just attaches around the car with velcro and covers the interior. I have a car cover but its just too much of a pain to pull it out everyday unless its raining. What do you guys/gals think?

Very cute, but how do you see while driving? Are there eye holes?? :shock:
Due to recent budget cuts and the rising cost of electricity, gas, and oil, we have decided to turn off the light at the end of the tunnel. We apologize for any inconvenience.

do y'all not have tops or something? It takes less time to put the top up (probably) than it would to get that thing out and walk all around the car to get it into place. I guess I don't see the point (for my application)...

Danno,
The cover is to protect the interior from the elements, mainly the sun. Even with the top up the sun comes through all of the windows and is starting to take a toll on my dash. I looked at getting a dash mat and a winshield screen for the front but that would still leave the side and back windows uncovered. At work we also have allot of tree's in the parking lot that attract birds. Doesn't seem to matter if you park under them or not your top will not escape their wrath. I also plan on making mine somewhat water proof/repellent so it will protect the interior from those random rain showers that we've been getting allot here lately. I think it's worth the investment as the cover will pull triple duty to protect my interior from rain, sun and bird crap.

Hi Danno,
I never leave home without it. It does tripple duty. Keeps out the sun, random bird droppings, and everything else that blows around during the day . It really is handy.It's just like the sun shade you might use in your hardtop. It keeps the heat down as well. I just stuff it behind the rear seat and off I go. No problem at all. Much better than putting up the top. I have a brand new top on my 1980 and it has only been up once. George
