To me, it doesn't make nearly enough difference to be worth its unsightliness. Just rolling up the side windows seems to be about 80% as effective as side windows + wind screen.

Windscreen ?
Hello @ all
Are you talking about this "black metal fishnet" behind the seats to protect you against wind ?
This part is an item of the stock delivered SL here in Europe - and you guys have to pay USD 560,-- for it ??
I am using this device quite often and I am happy with this indeed.
kind regards from France

Yes, it works well. I usually use it in the fall when I wanna keep the cold air out. I just rollup all the windows (including the rear) and put the screen up. It does the job of keeping the cold wind from blowing in. During the summer, I hardly use it unless I have someone in the car and I wanna talk while zipping on the highway.
