Re: Recommendation for Rear Wind Screen
Do these wind blockers also block the exhaust note? I'll be driving my new 05 Roadster back from DFW in two days and I'll be putting the top down during my evening drive on I-40. To hear the music of a fine engine at speed is something I want to keep.

With the top down there is a fair amount of wind and road noise, whether there is a windblocker or not. It only cuts down a little on the buffeting to the back of your head, not much else. The exhaust, even without mods, is delightful when accelerating hard in the n/a and awesome on the SRT6.

Re: Recommendation for Rear Wind Screen
Steve,
I purchased and installed easily a "Wind Restricter" from King Penn Industries. I chose the plain and simple un-etched un-lit model and it looks rather classy. It mounts behind the seats using the screws that mount the ubrella holder between the seats. No chattering at higher speeds and no annoying reflections at night from on-comming headlights. I don't remember the cost but it was fair for the nice finish of the material. I just purchased their lighted door sills and was informed this evening that that they shipped today. They we're priced at $288.00 including shipping. I recieved a discount for being a repeat customer. VERY nice people to deal with.
Chek them out.

Since I am a newbie owner, what recommendations do people have for installing a rear wind screen?
There is a plexiglass one listed on E-Bay for $85.00.
Is this a good buy?
And what other upgrades are recommended?
I have the inoperable heated seats, so I have reviewed the postings for the Dealer Repair Kit.

"Wind Restrictor"
Need I say more? Ok, the picture is below.
My only problem is I wished it had an option of smoked glass to make the picture pop and act as a tinted screen so I don't have to adjust the rear view mirror for headlights. If anybody is looking for noise reduction, then you should stick with the basic exhaust and put your windows up...otherwise get a coupe.

I also bought the storage bag - don't waste your money on that, like me, you will probably never take it off.
( also get 4 clear straps - it will rattle and vibrate with just 2 )
Very nice people - I made the mistake of ordering just 2 straps - I called them and they sent me not 2 more, but 4 more at no charge .......
