According to Al Gores internet, the plastic rear window in a miata can't be tinted. According to jeep guys, the static cling window tint does well.

So tonight, i did static cling window tint to the outside of the miata rear window. Pretty much as an experiment. For $3 i don't have much to lose. Unfortunately, lightest I could find was 20%.

I leave for a roughly 1000 mile trip in the morning. We'll see what happens.

Worked great! No issues with it even operating the top in the cold.

I only owned the car for about 4 months afterwards though, so i dont know about longevity.

For $3, even if it doesn't work much longer than 4 months, no big deal :)

 

Thanks!

Was my thought exactly! And it should keep the window from getting scratched up.
