Need some honest opinions on the windscreens on the market. A little pricey but that's to be expected. Think the concept is good with less wind in the cockpit at highway speeds but not sold on the looks. Thanks

Personally, I don't find it necessary but if I were to get one, it would be important that it not have to be removed to put the top up. That would be a dealbreaker.

Had the GM one but to much hassle to take off every time when the top was put up.

Got this one and it works great.

I had the GM one on my '11. Liked it so much, bought another for my 427. Very functional for us as my girlfriend's hair is shoulder length and would otherwise be one hell of a mess. YMMV

My GS 'vert came with one of these installed. I hated it. Every time I looked in the rearview, all I saw was the logo. At night, it lit up blue and it was very annoying and distracting. We took a road trip this weekend and had the top down @ 80 on the interstate. With the side windows up, we easily had a conversation. This one will be on Ebay pretty soon I think. If it was unlit and clear (with no logo), I'd consider leaving it in.

How does that mount? I bought a clip on mesh screen that attaches to the side of the seat release lever.
