Sorry I spelled the sellers name incorrectly. The correct name is mb-schaefer .
I have to agree that at dealer pricing of about $600USD is is pretty out there. To be honest i would not have bought one if I couldn't have found one for cheaper. I think it SHOULD cost about $200, it is about $400 on ebay and $600 is pretty rediclious. But, I guess MB's thought is that people willing to pay big $ for their cars are willing to pay big $ for their accessories.
After seeing its fit and function I will say it is nice to have. Fits on there good, and today on the way home with the top up was unnoticable. I will probably leave it in most of the time.
Anyway it works pretty well. It did not seem to help the wind that hits the top of my hair but I am 6' 2" so shorter people might not have that problem. I know the one cool weekend we have had since I got the car (pre windscreen), if I could scoot down in the seat about 4" I couldn't feel it. The windscreen did all but do away with the turbulance and side to side buffeting in the center of the cabin, just still get a tad over the top of the windshield at 70+ mph.
All and all, pretty damn good for no wind with the top down. |
