It doesn't help me because I never have the top up except when it's raining.
it's too hot for me to drive with the top down during the day...i usually only have the top down in the evening and at night...

No, you're right. It can get hot as heck in the daytime. I ride with the top down only sometimes in the middle of the day, but never with my wife in the car. She always complains and then embarrasses me by pulling something over her head. Looks like I have a corpse riding in the passenger seat or something.

Stu, just ship your car down and stay for the winter. You know Barbara would be happy to see you again!

I think I was quoted around that same price when I was looking at getting my window's tinted. They wanted aroud 150.00 to tint my windows. I don't know if they knew that I only had 2 windows for them to tint.

How's about giving Keith a call at Special-T-Tinting in Kalihi? They can also do custom alarm installs to. They're located across the street from HCC, and in the same area as Spot's Drive Inn.
