Thanks all.

I'm going to zip-tie the honeycombs (and see what else I can do to quiet them) and remove the plastic windscreen. I'm guessing windscreen removal is simple clips, but somehow difficult from all the people who have broken those clips I'll be gentle...

I have two big complaints with my boxster right now:

1. My honeycombs and windscreen rattle and shake incessantly
2. My 225/40/18 - 265/35/18 michelin pilot sports either lost a balancing weight, or bent a rim. They are nowhere near the smoothness level michelin's are known for...

If I can resolve #1, and work on #2, I will be one happy camper.

Joe, I took the seat mesh and the windscreen out and could not be happier !! Both the Mrs. and myself can't tell the difference. If you're worried about messing up your hair, wear a hat !!

I'd sell my mesh inserts if they weren't both missing a clip at the bottom.

I resolved my rattling headrest windguards with a small piece of double sided tape right in the bottom middle of the piece. A piece of foam tape would be as effective.
