Del sol Rain Vent Shades Visor for doors.
 
Does anyone have any info as to what may fit ?.
I love the windows open a crack, but when it's raining, its impossible.
Maybe there is a gutter thingie that may stick to the roof edge, anything that might work. The rear window is great, but needs a little air from the side windows for a good flow through.
ANY IDEAS ?

Don't really see how it's possible since the del Sol has a targa. There are really only two styles of vent shade- snap-in, which won't work since the targa has no window channel, and tape-on, which won't work if you want to take your targa off. :/

no one makes them because the del sol is a targa. just leave the back window cracked or all the way down and get a duckbill/roof wing/rear visor (it has so many names idk what its proper name is) to keep the water from rolling over the body into the cabin from the wind.

Plus...How are you going to close (or open) the door, with the window up? You know it's gonna happen.

^^key point right there. first time you forgot you'd lauch those suckers.

i always just roll the back window down a little bit. it will be the thing i missed most about this car. every car should have a roll down back window.

crack the passenger window too a little for flow. plus you won't get rained on.

Excellent - this is what I'm going to do...

I just crack the rear window a little bit and make sure the recycle button on the climate controls is turned off. The rear window creations a suction that pulls air through the vents. Faster you go the more suction there is, and unless you're stopped on a downhill section the rain won't come into the car.

If you roll it down too far it doesn't work, further down you encounter the air rushing in to fill that suction from the sides, which for obvious reasons means it's going to blow air into the cabin.
