Default Has anyone a solution as to how to keep rain from coming in the side windows.

Other than keep them tightly closed/in the garage/only drive on dry days etc. responses please. Down here, even on the sunniest of days we get flash rains. Squalls move through with no warning. I leave the car facing the sun, windshield reflector up and side windows cracked open at work. And then keep one eye on the weather outside all day. I'd like something I could place in the windows to keep rain out yet allow the heat to escape. I've looked and looked. Nothing seems to be made for a convertible's use, only permanent installations. Anyone have a clever (non sarcastic) solution?

maybe consider modifing some of the standard(?) side window wind deflectors you see on some trucks?

If you figure something that works please post. we have similar issues in louisiana

Why bother leaving the windows cracked when it's so easy to release all of the built-up heat by lowering the top?

What about a sensor of somesort (like in the accord COG commercial) that detects rain and rolls up your windows? Can't be all that improbable, might cost a pretty penny though. Just a thought.
