This folding wind deflector is made for the 2020 BMW 230 Convertible. It sits behind the front seats and reduces the wind that reaches the driver and front passenger when the top is down. It cuts wind entering the front seats by up to 70%, and in wind tunnel testing it reduced buffeting and wind noise by 10 decibels.
The screen uses a dual-layer design. The first layer gives rigidity against the wind while staying flexible enough to move the seats back and forth without cracking or breakage. The second layer diffuses the wind into a breeze. The two layers are thin enough to leave the rear-view mirror usable day or night. The mesh is a durable nylon polymer made to resist fading, tearing and extreme heat inside a car.
One person can install it in under 5 minutes using 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 screen's height and keeps it level, even if the seats are uneven. The frame collapses for storage. Remove the resistance rods to fold it into the included storage bag, or place the whole windscreen in the trunk.
