Did some searching but only see mention of it prior to it coming out. Has anyone used one and have an opinion on it?

I've been using one ~7 months now on my soft-top.

Pros: Easy to install, looks clean interior finish, keeps the temperatures better than without. Some minor sound improvement.

Cons: The fit is good, but it's not tight. I've tried a few different ways to get it better and it always ends up sagging no matter how good the connection points look. When driving with the roof folded halfway back, it doesn't have a loop back option so have to either remove completely or have it drop down into the back and block vision.

If doing longer trips in hot/cold conditions it's worthwhile and if you do a lot of freeway driving the wind noise reduction is enough to add value.
