best part though....it's suuuuuper functional. Yesterday was steaming hot where I was and by adjusting this lil intake flap, your interior gets much much cooler than it normally would with just the windows down. I have to give this thing

I brought it over from Japan. I don't think most people are willing to pay what they cost to get over here. After shipping, wire transfer fee's and such, they cost around $200ish They're still a sought after item in Japan so they're not cheap.

it is but it's a good design. I'm all about function. Of course i got it used but it has good weatherstripping with outlets so no water gets stuck underneath. I got the idea from the one on this car:

I have one of these, but it's got 2 small flaps. One for the driver and one for the passenger. It's been sitting in my garage for a little while and I haven't decided what to do. It has all of the lip brackets that attach to the inside lip of the sunroof too. I got it from a guy in Japan, it came boxed with a Japanese news paper and all. LOL. I'll post some pics when I get home this evening. It's time to get the SC out and wash her anyways. I might sell it, if anyone's interested PM me. I paid $110 shipped, maybe $70 shipped to someone?

Lol, the way you worded this makes it sound as if you're selling your SC for $70 shipped

If so I'll take it!! That's a hellafied deal! lol.

$70 is a great deal, they cost more than that in Japan although I haven't seen the 2 flap version like that.
