Looks like it's to long to fit in the trunk. Post up some pics when you get yours.

Why do you need this device, I hate to ask?

This car has about the least wind buffeting of any convertible, from what I've read and from my personal experience (going back to a '69 TR6).

I wouldn't say it's needed. but since having one on my 96 Stang, I'll never be without one again. They cut down wind and niose, also keep heat and cooling up there with you for extended convertible season.
I'm glad to see that it's available to all now. I have a 2005 SEMA show prototype that never went into production, and love it.
I highly recomend one to anyone that does a lot of top down driving, especially on the freeway.

I had one on my '96 'vert also. It worked great. I used to carry it in my trunk, so I am guessing this one will fit in the new Mustangs as well. It's true that my '05 'vert is much improved in terms of buffeting over the '96, this windscreen will even get your wife to enjoy doing 70 with the top down.

Holy Smoke Steve, I just noticed your photo. That's the Blue Bridge. I live right on the other side on Road 44 in Pasco. Maybe I'll see you around town sometime. I'm glad to see that somebody else from "The Middle of Nowhere" is on the Forums.

Hey Joe,
Do you have one of the new windscreens? I'd like to check it out.

It WILL FIT in the trunk, the picture only shows that it needs to be put in this way to fit.

You can see a video here: http://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid=-2654478734229338262&q=wind+deflector

Amazon says this product is not available. Would anyone know if this would work with the CDC lightbar?

I've got one fitted to our car here in the UK, I think the screen is made in Germany. This one clips in place, no straps to keep fitting but you do need to drill and fit two mounting to the side panels.

How do you like the windscreen?

I noticed you removed the headrests, why?

Having spent some time in the UK, you don't see many full size trucks there. I bet you get asked to help move people a lot.

Thanks for the good pics.

They only had one left when I looked right after the original post. It was/is priced at $325.00 I do believe.

It cuts out all the wind buffeting, very easy to clip in place.
I have removed the headrest to have them embroidered.
There are a few USA trucks around here, Its nice having something different to the smaller Jap stuff.

A hat for $15 - $20 sounds a lot better than $335!

Until you've seen/felt how good they are you won't really know. But, since have my first windscreened Stang, I'll not be without one. If you don't have top down much, it's not worth it, and I know it's not so bad anyway, I'm just saying that they are really awesome and my wife even loves it more.
A side note, they cut down the wind noise a lot too. Much easier for conversations on those great cruises.
