Default Who has a WindBlocker on their Convertible Mustang?

So, I've seen several products that "block the wind" aka backdraft on convertible mustangs. One of which does advertise on this website...

https://www.windblockerse.com/

Just curious, does anyone have this or a similar product and would be willing to share feedback... My wife wants to buy me one.

Thanks


PS... I wonder if the forum discount is still in effect?

I've had one for about a year or so. I like it, I remove it when I'm by myself, but it's quick and easy to install when I have a passenger. It works as advertised; the only gripe I have is that the mesh is rather dense and does effect rear vision, especially at night. The fancier wind blockers look like they'd be better in that dept., but they cost 3 times as much.

I do not have a 'wind blocker'. If you don't want the wind blowing through your car/hair/etc. WHY did you buy a Convertible? It defeats the purpose. Buy a coupe or glass top if you don't want wind.

I have the CDC windscreen and although it is a little pricey, it works nicely with my CDC light bar. We do not use it that often, but it is very nice to have on cooler days as you can crank up the heat and the windscreen really helps reduce the wind, while keeping things a bit warmer without all the swirling wind.

I've been looking at these for a while, seems like a lot of cash for a bit of mesh. But its pretty clever to have a girl in the video with a short skirt install the thing.

It says why you want a wind blocker, not why you bought a 'vert. Since the sarcasm wasn't appreciated here's my opinion. That is a lot of coin to drop on a piece of mesh. If blowing hair is a problem then keep some hairbands and hair clips in the glovebox. I have been doing that for years and the wifey doesn't complain. Also it looks like those things would limit access to the back seat for passengers, bags, etc.

I've been looking for one. I love my Convertible, and I love having the top down. I however, am female and have very long hair. I hate having to put it in a pony tail, only to have the bangs be completely wrecked. Trust me, I've been wanting something like this for a while, and unfortunately can't use the WindBlocker SE because of my 2013.

I hear they work great. Go for it. I know eventually I will.
