I almost forgot what to tell my wife I wanted for Christmas lol. Thanks for reminding me Nordic windshields look great, but suck for function, that's for sure.

I have a nice tinted used set if you are interested give me a call at 989-464-5531. If you give me an email address I can send you some pics of what I have. These things are the ticket for the problem you describe. I have driven customers 100 plus mph cats without them and can't imagine doing it all the time without them. I personally use them on my cats and they do work! Rob
