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.
Thanks for your info, i'm try to get one very soon, either ebay or dealer, but the OEM for sure~! ......
