MKIV #9644 (build thread) (Index)
MK4 Complete Kit | Gen2 crate Coyote | Tremec T56, 3.55 IRS | power steering | hydroboost | dual roll bars | FFR carbon fiber dash | 18" Halibrands + Wilwoods | RT drop trunk kit & turn signal | front battery mount | saddle leather Intatrim Stoneleigh seats + interior accents
There is a member on the FFR forum that sells them, at least I think he still does. Gpete. I purchased the partial build from him and it came with it.
See the pic below, but it has a suction cup with a rod that connects to a ball that is attached to the fiberglass top. The top is two pieces and between bolting them together, attaching it to the windshield frame and the two rods it holds it in place pretty good. He told me that the two halves will fit in the trunk as well.
Here are YouTube links to the install which shows how it works.

I think it will go well with the Breeze roll bars since they are a little lower. In the video the car has the taller roll bars, which isn't quite as good looking in my opinion.
It wouldn't do much in rain, but on a hot, sunny day it would make the ride much more pleasant. And it's not a bad look.
