Wind Deflectors
 
I'm wondering what people's thoughts are on the perforated wind deflectors that mount in the roll bar, right behind the driver's and passenger's head? I have the plexiglass one that mounts in the middle, but I'm looking to reduce the buffeting a little more during highway use. Do these offer any more protection from the wind? We take a couple of 3 hour plus highway trips per year. It looks like URO makes them for about $110 per side. Worth it?

Thanks,
E-

with one of mine accidentally breaking, i did some research into these as well. both mesh deflectors do in fact reduce turbulence and assist with wind reduction inside the cabin itself, when the top is down. URO does have a set of 2 for $207 on amazon, so i myself might purchase there. truthfully i like em for the aesthetic but it looks like they do give quite the amount of benefits too :cheers:

I just ordered a set. We'll see how much of a difference it makes. Worst case, I can return them.

They do make a difference. I removed mine and drove around with them and put them back on. The difference is noticeable.
