New to forum

Hello fellow XF enthusiasts. I am new to the forum. My wife and I bought an '05 overstock limited roadster with 43 miles last fall (9/07) and can't wait for winter to end. I've picked up some good tips along with some laughs while reading the forum.
Happy trails everyone.

As my wife said, I always did like them topless. Bought mine about the same time and the forum has been great for lots of info. Love my roadster even had the top down today with the heat and the seats on. Congratulations on your purchase.

Thanks snowtop57,
I've been thinking of installing a wind restrictor, how do you like yours? Does it really make much of a difference? The wind doesn't bother me but sometimes it does my wife.

The wind restrictor is worth every penny. Although it doesn't make a dramatic difference, it does make a difference. I don't think you will be sorry if you purchase one. The only thing I would change would be to add a dimmer control for the lights, which I will probably do this spring.
