Who knows...anyway, keep it coming

I for one have not reached the point in my life where I can pay instead of do.

Two hours of my time is worth a lot less than $35. This isn't the case for others.
Another thing is the wait. Two hours vs. shipping from Australia.

I don't see a need for the glass window owners unless you decide to tint. The whole reason behind the mat is to keep the window off the plastic well bottom, thus preventing scratches from friction and direct contact with a material which generates a gas that is harmfull to vinal (causing foggy appearance over time). The glass window will not fog since it does not react with the gas. You will have the same issue of scratches over time in tinting if the window lays directly on the bottom of the well. Since I do not have a glass window, I do not know how it lays in the tray.

Muz,
Your mats do look a little better , and I appreciate the sportsmanship

Um er, Muz buddy? How can I return stuff to you?

No offense slbutler, but even if I'd known how to make one as nice as yours before I'd seen the Muz product, I am one who is too lazy to make my own. And I don't even have a job!!

Tommy, with the plastic windows is a known certainty that they will scratch without some form of protection. I don't think the priority is quite as high with a glass window however if your window is getting scratched or marked in some way then yes, a mat (or towel, or whatever) would provide some protection.

As far as design goes it is cut to fit the exact shape of the roof well without obstructing the roof mechanism when folded. It fits all year models.

Or.. you can do something similar to slbutler and use a towel. For plastic window owners the main thing is to have some form of protection there.
