I couldn't stand the "glow" of polycarbonate. It transmits light to the edges like fiber optics and clear mesh reflects too much light. My Clearview lid was on for literally one day. It resides in the equipment heap in the basement now. Black on black is the only way to go, you barely notice it.

BRS carries clear netting in 1/4" and 1/8" mesh sizes. I'm sure it could be sourced more cheaply elsewhere, but I have not searched for it yet.
