I like the look of the windscreen, but was suprised how it actually directed more air toward me because of the vents at the bottom under the plexiglas. If anyone finds a good solution, it would be nice for the cooler months.
As jbanks said, it may be on backwards. Just to clarify: Look at the black plastic at the sides, junction between plexiglass and the sides of the center piece. The side that has a smooth surface and no round buttons faces the back of the car. The side with the round buttons faces the cabin/cockpit.

Placing the OEM windscreen in reverse may be a good idea for summer, it can substitute for the AirScarf during hot days.

I'll have to try this when the temp reaches 80 degrees F.
