Default Rear window

Has anyone used the rear window clip that holds the rear window open a couple inches? I have a terrible wind buffering sound driving down the interstate with the top off, that is driving me nuts. Does this thing really work, or is it a waste of money?

I haven't bought one yet, but I've heard good reviews here on them. Supposedly this one is the best out there:

Have mine for 3 yrs. Takes about 30 seconds to put on.
Use it all the time with the targa off. Cuts the turbulance down dramatically.
Way overpriced for what it is $25-30 but worth it
