Anybody installed one of Rick's Aero Screens on a 2002 model? I'm curious if there are any clearence issues with the glass window. 7/8 or FUll. Thanks?

 

I have the 7/8 screen and there are no problems.
You just can't put the top down with the screen in the down position.

 

I have a 7/8ths screen I can sell...

There are three screws and two dowels that go through the screen to attach it to the factory aeroscreen mount (none are visible from the outside). One of the screw holes on mine cracked. I can glue it back together and it's not in a place that can be seen without disassembly. There are still 2 other screws and 2 dowel pin things that will hold it securely in place, so it will actually hold in place even if you just leave that screw out. But the break is clean, so I think gluing it would work fine and then you could use all three screws.

Anyway, PM me if you're interested.

 

I have a full size windscreen in my S. And MajorHavoc
is right, you can't rasie/lower the top with it laid back (down). the only thing I wish I had done when I installed mine, is to add something that would have worked as a washer between the Windscreen and the housing (Clam Shell) there is a little play in it. The Stock windscreen is thicker by 1/16 the Ricks. I did apply some silicon sealer into the gap, and that solved the problem I had.

If I was to install it again, I would cut some felt as a washer for one side.

Other then that, it is much better then the stock one. This one actually works.

 

I also have Rick's 7/8 screen. It was my first mod and I love the S2000 logo that is on it. I can't really tell that it helps any more with the wind problem and my wife will tell you she can't tell any difference at all - so I just ordered from MajorHavoc the headrest wind blocker for her.
You can see Rick's windscreen in this photo as I let my son sit in the cockpit.

 

Thanks for the info guys. I think I'm going to order the 7/8

 

I'm thinking of purchasing Ricks aero screen, just can't decide between the 7/8 and the full. Would there ever be a reason one would like to have the screen in the down position? If not, I guess there wouldn't be much of a clearance issue as it wouldn't be down most of the time. So I have several questions -

1. Does the full offer any more noticeable protection from wind buffeting over the 7/8?
2. Does the 7/8 have any clearance issues with the top coming up AND down?
3. Does the lexan headrest blockers offer more buffetting protection and does it come as a pair for both sides?

Thanks.

 

I have the 7/8

1) I have been told 'no'
2) Absolutely not
3) The windscreen, in my opinion, is far more effective than the leaxan headrest blockers. I have the both the aeroscreen and the headrest blockers installed. While I like both, and both are effective, I find the Aeroscreen to make a much more noticable difference.

I also have a 7/8th one. To tell you the truth, I don't think it helps much with the wind, maybe just a little, but it sure looks better, IMO.
