I tested M275s windstop at the meet (see the meet has many uses!) and found it a little weird at first. It is great and I would recommend one but I see what you mean about visability!
The rear view mirror is for checking your makeup though isn't it!

I find its perfectly OK when the roofs down an can see through the mesh just fine.

When the roofs up its hinged so I just have to push it backwards without needing to remove it -perfect.

Wouldn't know about the make - up though cos I haven't checked mine yet.

Its usually OK though I do find it a little blurry through the centre mirror sometimes but a glance in the side mirrors sorts out the fine detail.

I even use it with the roof up. That way, it pretty much cuts out the whirlwind you get when tanking up the motorway with the windows open.

i think it's sad to make posts just to get a better logo

but on the subject of windstops ........

everyone says how good they are which makes me want to buy one as i can get them for under Â£150 (i think) but i don't think they look very nice at all which puts me off.

brilliant, I wouldn't be without mine especially on the motorway at speed. Remember Bridget Jones

I quite like the look, makes the car look more like a two seater and makes a hell of a difference on long journeys. Each to their own.

Can't imagine the car without it - it's brilliant and no impairment to vision. Only downside is that you can't get a good look when a babe is behind you!

I always put mine down momentarily to check if I see someone interesting behind in my wing mirror!

The windstop is vital piece of driving topless.

Before the windstop driving with my hair down was impossible either I'd end up eating it or it just became majorly tangled. with the windstop hair down and it stays in place - perfect!

I keep the windstop in place all the time, and I don't have any problems with visability if you do you can just push it down. With the roof up it makes a brilliant sun screen, to protect the leather from blistering. As it covers the rear seats when driving topless it keeps the back alot cleaner!.

Thumbs up for the windstop. A must have

ps. I'm not on commission - honest!
