Wow, I was skeptical on the windscreen but found a new one for $380 shipped off of eBay. It does make a big difference in amount of air circulating. I never would have guessed.

Just took a road trip from San Jose to San Lius O and ended up with top down for about half of it. The weather was outstanding mid to upper 70s. Even well over 70mph there isn't much wind with windows up and the windscreen. Works at least as good as a bmw E93 3 series if not better.

How easy is it to remove the only reason I ask is I would like to order one but if it's going to be a PITA to remove as my kids like to ride in the vert.

Was that for an OEM windscreen? I've seen aftermarket ones in that price range, but they did not fold in half, lengthwise, like the OEM windscreen does. The below pic is one example. As you can see in the pic, there is no "hinge" in the middle for it to fold in half.

It was the OEM windscreen. Folds up nice into a quarter if size. Very easy to install / uninstall. Even a dummy like me can do it in less than a minute.

I just picked this up a couple weeks ago and love it. "Tested" it at 130 and the turbulence was still not bad at all. More testing might be required, just to be sure.

Did you get a good amount of resistance? When I try and push it back it feels like I am about to break it, there is nothing holding it in place that first needs released?

Yes, it takes a good push to get it to "click" and go down. I suspected that was normal as I could not find a button.

Guys

Does it fit in the trunk under the retracted roof? Would be really good to be able to carry it in the trunk without sacrificing "regular" trunk space

Thanks

Mark

Yes it does. Not much else, however.
