I have a WindRestrictor on my 2009. IMO it is the best built. It cuts approximately 50 percent of the backdraft. You can carry on a conversation with your passenger and hear the radio with the top down at normal highway speeds. It does not interfere with the top when it is up.

I also have this same one and yes you can buy a light up kit for it. Works great.

I have had a Windrestrictor in my 13 GS for the past 5 years and love it. I ordered it with the 60th Anniversary Logo and the red LED bar and wired it into the brake lights.
