Windscreen Blowout

[Cloudsurfer]

I"ve found the best thing that helps is the rubberized electrical tape. Not the thin "standard" stuff but the thick, stretchy, rubberized stuff. Its black, so it blends in and is quite thick. I put a few pieces on all 3 corners of each rollbar insert, nice and tight and no rattles. As for the center windstop, you can replace the clips for about $2 each at your dealer which makes for a MUCH tighter fit, especially for those of you who have 10 year old cars. If that's not enough, put a small piece of the tape between the piece rollbar mount and where the clip locks to tighten up the fit. Mine are completely silent and I do not worry at all about mine blowing out.

There is (finally) a TSB on the 987's center windstop. For the sides, has anyone tried these? (a site sponsor)

There's a ton of opinions on one of the forums about this product. Think about:
1. If Porsche wanted to make thesethings solid they could have easily...but they didn't.
2. These are likely to turn your windscreens into easily launches. They're know for falling out even with the perforations!
3. $77 for a lexan cut out and a bolt???

I agree with you, btw...!

I've done 135 with the top down and the windstop or screens never come loose on my 118k mile boxster.

I did add alot of plush circles to the contact points/plastic tabs to quiet everything up and that is also making them more snug.
