    Default C6 GS Convertible Wind reflector

    I have a 2011 JSB GS Convertible. Thinking about purchasing wind reflector with advanced light and brake light kit from NCM. Anyone have experience with this product. Does it help maintain cabin pressure? Make discussions and radio easier to hear? As advertised? When purchasing optional light kits, are wires visible? Thanks in advance for any info you can send on this item.

    Default End Deflector

    Thanks for your reply. I think the one I am thinking about is a solid glass like material and not a screen. Do you have the one with a light kit? Same results?

    Default Windrestrictor

    I have a 2011 GRAND SPORT, just installed the windrestrictor you are talking about. IT seems to help with the back draft of wind ,but just a little.STILL have wind blowing,dose seem to help the sound of the speakers.IT dose look good got many thumbs UP, installing is not that differcult, just some rug cutting .I bought it with the AC adapter plugs right into AC adapter in the center console, you do see some of the wire but it is behind the passengers seat also got the dimmer switch looks and works great

    Had dealer install wind deflector, light and brake dimmer kit. All works and looks great. Cost me some, but did not want to cut into carpet or run wiring that might show. All adapters and wiring are hidden. Comes with a remote control. Looks great. A lot of do ray me, but I think worth it. Thanks all for the insights.

    I installed mine last week, no big deal, ran the wires into the console where I can either plug it into the power socket or into the optional battery box...

    Mine glows blue, what about your's? The blue is perfect with the Jetstream Blue. Going to the Bash??

    Had R8C. Planned to go to bash. Now have major fund raiser for children's org, so can't make it. Like the blue color but also have option for other colors. Arm rest was good idea. I have remote with brake light settings mounted in trunk. Enjoy the Bash.
