Default Rear Wind Deflector

My S is 2000.....so it did not come with the wind deflector (rear)....I am planing to buy one. I like the stock one but want to get Rick's 7/8' plastic installed in it....any suggestion? is this mod worthy? Also where could I get the stock base (frame) cheap? (other than ebay or Honda)....
Thanks
X.

Something else to consider that will negate the need to purchase a factory base and provide good visibility...

The stock one does little to block wind i just perchased the full size wind deflector from Ricks and put it on this weekend, also have the inserts that block wind in the headrests. I ordered the full size unit, tinted black so it really looks great, takes some work but it looks good in the stock mount as if it's part of the car.

Haven't driven the car yet so i can't report on wind reduction.

The violent wind gets to you after a while, especially when road tripping. Radio is louder with less wind, go figure...

Hate the sucky radio.
