How many of you actually use your tinted roof panel? I find it very warm in the summer and actually think it looks better without it!

I'm just the opposite. My painted top is safely packed away in my garage and I only use the tinted top.

I use both. I have the tinted top on the car now. I have one of those mylar sun shields on it that keeps the heat down inside the car.

My thoughts exactly on both counts, plus as it does not have the insulation of the colored roof panel it is also noisier, and so mine hangs in the garage 95% of the time.

Like the BSM subject, there are alternate views on this, and there are many people who love the tinted roof panel and use it exclusively. I am glad I have both as I wouldn't want to not have the option to use the tinted panel occasionally when the whim takes me.

I have both but mainly use the painted top. Look wise it doesn't matter on to me, the tinted and black top match my black vett. I just didn't like all the sunlight shinning on me with my dark tinted windows. So I stick with the painted top now.

I never use the clear top in the summer. It's too hot in Oklahoma.

In Arizona, I use the painted roof during the summer to avoid the "ant under a magnifying glass" feeling from May to October - - -then the lexan top during the cooler season.

I had only a glass top for my C4 and loved it. I hope to have a glass top for my C5 soon. It makes the interior feel huge and I love the added light.

It's nice to be able to switch them out whenever you want - it's almost like getting a new car.

I've got both in the car now, one on it and one in it. I just got the painted top and love it. I've thought about selling the tinted top but it's too much of a hassle to ship so I'll keep it safely stowed in the hatch for now.

If anyone has one close to NE Arkansas for a decent price..... I will drive and pick up. HINT HINT

I run the tinted top probably 99% of the time. I enjoy being able to see through the roof.

Honestly I can't remember the last time I used the glass top. It stays in the bag tucked away under the stairs in the garage.

I prefer the lexan top for many reasons, and all of them have been stated above.

Same here (every day for 15 years) - never bothered me in the summer, but I rarely keep it parked outside for very long in daylight.

My glass top was badly spidered, so I kept it off for 4-5 years. I don't drive in the rain, so it was never an issue. I bought a new glass top last spring and didn't take it off all summer. I actually think I like the looks of my car better with it on. I also like the fact that it protects my interior from the sun when I'm at car shows.

Since we have both we try to use both. In the summer time it's just too hot for the tinted top. We will be putting the clear top on in the next couple of weeks. Myself I think the car looks better with the colored top and of course the wife thinks the opposite.

Same in NC. Currently painted top, but when the clocks change, so does the top.

Huh? really?........go figure!

My wife is the same, she says it looks "sleeker" with the tinted top!

I switch off on a whim. Right now, the tinted top is on. I probably have the tinted top on a bit more than the painted top.
