Warning: Purists, look away.

Just something I've been thinking about, as my bird is used most often for family outings, and my kids are starting to complain about the wind level in the back seat when the top is down.

I find the wind and noise level in the front seat is almost non-existent; I can carry on a conversation with the passenger with ease. But the back seat is another story - it's probably similar to being on a motorcycle with no helmet.

In my opinion, cars look rather stupid with these wind deflectors on them, but leaving the kids at home isn't a desired option, nor is driving with the top up, or driving much slower.

So, I'm wondering if anyone has tried a wind deflector on their bird, and how well they work, etc.

The company below makes one for first gen Camaro's, and I'm assuming they'd work on our Pontiac's, but it appears that they take up the entire back seat, which defeats the purpose of what I'm trying to accomplish: reduce the wind for the back seat passengers. They have other models, that might fit okay, although securing them would be another issue. On the upside, they seem to use a mesh or fabric material, which might be safer than a piece of plexiglass or glass, which is shown in a late model version in the second link.
