MNR wind deflector
Has anyone got MNR's wind deflector fitted on their car? How much difference does it make? In a little experiment putting my hand on top of
the scuttle, I have to get the top of my hand level with my eye to deflect most of the wind over my head. I was wondering how effective the real
thing is.

I am not the taller person and I was worried that it might restrict my vision. Now that my car is on the road, there is a lot of bonnet / cycle wing
visible above the scuttle and so there is room for a deflector without blocking out any view of the tarmac. I'm only interested if it keep
enough wind out of my face to just wear shades in the summer rather than a helmet.

I went out in Andy D (Rizla) car with the wind deflector, and I found it very worthwhile, but I am 6'2". There was no vision issues, and
the wind just ruffled my hair (what here is left)
So I have one to fit

How do they fit to the car? Bolts? Glue?

i bolted the centre mirror through the wind deflecter and the scuttle and used 1 black pop rivet at each end and a small amount of blak
mastic

I used some foam tape to protect the mating surfaces then attached it using the mirror bolts all around...
That way it can be removed and replaced by the upcoming windscreen..
Opinions are like backsides..
Everyone has one, nobody wants to hear it and only other peoples stink!
