How to fix wind deflector?
Hi, my S is a MY00, and it doesnt come with the wind deflector, i'm thinking to buy
one, but not sure how to fit it? Anyone got any experience or any good way to do
it?
Cheers,
Allen

You'll need to buy an OEM wind deflector. You'll also need to drill two holes in the secret compartment lid to allow the bolts to fit through, securing the deflector hinge mechanism.
This is how mine fits (although I have my larger, DIY wind blocker, the stock one is shorter):

You should be able to see the two small silver bolts at the bottom of the hinge, these secure it.

Captain, Are you asking because you've seen the one in the FS section.
You should be able to fit the standard deflector to the compartment lid.

hole on the lid, not sure where exactly should I drill the hole and how big the hole
has to be.
From what I've read on here, in the early years the deflector was an option and then later became standard.
there may be some hole positions marked on the underside of the lid, they may be underneath a fuzzy covering.
There are threads on fitting the screen.

Lift the lid of the secret compartment. You should see two recesses (possibly under the fuzzy covering) for the small nuts (8mm, IIRC) that secure the bolts I mentioned above.
