This folding wind deflector is made for the 2008 Toyota Solara Convertible. It reduces the wind that reaches the front seats by up to 70%. In wind tunnel testing, it reduced buffeting and wind noise by 10 decibels.
The screen uses a dual-layer design (patent pending). The first layer gives rigidity against the wind and stays flexible enough that the seat can still move back and forth without cracking or breakage. The second layer diffuses the wind into a cooling breeze. The layers are thin enough that the driver can still use the rear-view mirror by day or night.
One person can install it in under 5 minutes with two straps. One strap attaches to the headrest pylon and the other to the passenger-side pylon. Moving the headrest up or down adjusts the height and keeps the screen level. The frame collapses to fit a small trunk. Remove the resistance rods to fold it into the included storage bag, or place the whole windscreen in the trunk.
