Default A stupid question about the wind screen....

I just got my '06 S2000, and the wind screen is at about a 45 degree angle, facing backwards, instead of being straight up. Is it supposed to be at that angle? Thanks....

Yes, it certainly was a stupid question, but thanks for the advice. I just got the car, and didn't do very much to investigate this -- I had tried to turn the screen upwards, but it didn't move, and I was afraid I'd break something if I tried too hard, without checking first.

Somehow, I've managed to get through life pretty well to this point.

Well, the car is a helluva lot of fun, and I'm looking forward to having all summer to drive it.

I doubt it. All of the other years have it straight up.

OH MY GAWD! REALLY???? It can't be THAT simple, can it? You mean I've had this car for over 5 years with a windscreen that's "folded" back at an angle for nothing? You mean, I could have just reached back, grabbed it with my hand and pulled it forward into the vertical position where it would do the most good? Who would have thought Honda designed it with a HINGE????

You must have a totally different definition of "bitter". Unless of course, you equate "bitter" with "sarcasm" and an expression of "How the heck have some people survived through life as long as they have" bewilderment.
On the other hand, the last I looked in the Webster Dictionary, those two words had totally different meanings. Maybe I should take another look just in case something has changed?

OH, almost forgot ..............................................
