I have one, and it makes a little difference in volume, but the wife says she noticed a huge difference in wind on her side, which is why I purchased it.
Check around for a used one, that's what I got and I feel it was worth it.
I recently purchased one of the new poly Vette Nets. I spent the extra $$ to get the Torch Red framed one which looks really good in my car. As to the effectiveness, my wife says little to no difference/improvement and I perhaps see a bit of improvement. I probably would not spend the $400 on one again. Ron

The general consensus seems to lean toward your post. Have you tried putting your windows up about 2 inches and see if there is any difference....next time I get up to some speed I will try, alot of the guys on this thread seem to think it works and saved $400- bucks. Thanks for your reply Ron. Greetings Rob
I have the newer one and it seems to work pretty good. I am 6 ft wife is 5'3 so it worked better for her. What I did was it insert a wine cork into the tubes so the plexi net sits higher,now it works for me as well. Truth be told,I don't use it as much as I should but it does look good and functions.
Pretty much the same for me, it seems to work ok, but I don't use it enough. I've had both versions and didn't really notice a difference between the two. I think the newer version looks better on a C5. I have my newer version mounted about 1 1/2" higher than oem too, that seems to have made a difference.
Rob, I've never tried the windows up 2 inches,so can't really comment on that. The wind doesn't bother me at all, I was just trying to reduce the wind so the top could be down more when wife was with me! Ron
