Post those rear window sun shades?

the plastic thing that you lay over the rear window?
they were popular on 3rd gens, and i know they made them for 4th gens, what are they called? i think they look cool plus block out all the sun. does anybody know who makes them?

Cool

i just got out my scott's speed shop catalog and they have it. company called astra (hammond) makes it. it's a 3 piece design.

they're made for camaro's and firebirds, they look badass and make the interor dark and cool during the day.

Personally, I like Solar Wing. Has anyone try it? Basically I like how it will look on a black car, and maybe it will hide all those horrible dots on a tinted window .

Nope, I already tried it. The tint shop never finished the top which you reference, so I got one of those solar wings but it didn't work - wasn't long enough and sticks stright back, not like a more traditional louver. I ended up painting that area with black paint - Problem Fixed.

they want $270 for this thing, a little too much to me. i've checked ebay and lots of other places and can't find anyone over the web that sells them so now i'm going to put an ad over in the for sale section.
