Ken,
My .02
Why not make it out of your Hardtop.  My Tracker has a fiberglass Bikini top
instead of vinyl.
I have considered this idea for my roadster, but still am unsure about cutting
up my hardtop.
Maybe you could put a hinge on the inside, hopefully making it small enough to
store into your trunk.
