Last I heard this part still does not exist. There is a company that makes a plexiglass screen, but it is u-g-l-y. You'd think the aftermarket would have jumped on this!

It makes the wind in the car with the top down much less turbulant. Instead of whipping around and hitting you from all sides it more goes front to back.

Any update on this topic ?

Not too long ago I have seen a web site advertising a plexiglass windscreen for the 05 CDC light bar but can't find it anymore, also I saw an 05 with a soft windsreeen attached under the CDC bar on the street the other day but no clue where it's comming from.

What's available now ?

I can shed some light on the windsreen issue. A windscreen is an awesome additin to a vert. Cuts down wind, noise, and helps keep A/C or heat in front area (more top down time). I've had them on past Mustangs and they are out there, Ford part or Ralshracing.com $199.
As for 05 and up Stangs, very sad to say, not available. The company that made the prototype for 2005 SEMA show was told Ford did not want to continue it. Also, the company in Germany (that made these windstops for US copany) is no longer in busniss.
I am very happy to say, was so lucky to obtain the SEMA one off proto-type. I love it and hope someone else desides to make them available for all.
Windstops are comon in Europe, just haven't caught on here. If you have an older Stang vert I would suggest getting one before there all gone.

That's like the one for the 94-98 also. They're awsesome. Will not work on 05 - up.

CDC Lightbar

Dineau:

Does CDC sell the windscreen pictured with the CDC lightbar? If not, who sells it? Is it removable? Can it be stored in the trunk?Ã*

Thanks.

I'm still lookig for an 05-07 windscreen, not an acrylic type one similar to this one.

Haven't seen any on the web or at Ford. Can this be an earlier generation model that has been installed ?

Cool, that's the windstop I have now. That pic must have been from while Ford and/or CDC people were trying it out. I can tell by the way it is made, the clips in rear and there was only one made. Hopefully somebody will make one someday again for the people that don't have light bars.
Excuse me, after looking closer, that's the French one.
