Thumbs up Rick's Aero Screen?

Does anyone use Rick's Aero Screens? I was wondering what the real difference is between te 7/8 and full size, can the difference be felt?

Also if anyone has a pic of each so I can compare them side by side?

I pulled this right from Rick's site. I have the full size, so I can not tell you the difference in wind restriction between the two. The main difference is, you can lower your top with the windscreen folded down and don't need to worry about the screen scratching you rear window. I normally don't have my screen folded down, so there is no problem. Hope this helps?

The aero screen is available in three sizes, full, 7/8s, and stock. Both the full and 7/8s versions provide much improved wind protection in comparison to the stock size. The full size curves to the same height as the top of the roll bars; the 7/8s size is about 3/4 inches lower. When the full size is folded back with the convertible roof up, you must place your fingers over the top edge of the screen to prevent it from rubbing the rear window. The 7/8s version can be folded back without this restriction. The full version offers slightly greater wind protection than the 7/8s. The stock version matches the screen delivered with the car.

Thanks... Thats why I was asking for pictures, Rick's have pictures of the full size one, I want to a see a comparison against the 7/8's one.

Out of interest, how much buffeting do you still get in the cabin?

I can notice a significate difference with the full screen versus the OEM screen, especially with the side windows up as well.

Good to know, because being 6'2", the wind is annoying...
