Cant see that thread as yet :-[

That email address quoted is about the only useful information on that 5yr old thread unless you want to read all the replies asking "are these still available?" :D

I'll drop a mail that way later today. Thanks @Bernie for digging it out.

I've made a tool for making Mongos.

If enough people want some, I'll make a few.

They are small perspex wind-deflectors that slot into your upper A pillar. They deflect wind when you're top-and-windows-down

Did anyone ever get the larger Mongo's? I've got my seat all the way back and they don't make much difference , Mum (short) swears by them on her MR2 though.

@Bossworld
I'm with your mam on those, make a surprising difference. But then I sit fully forward.

With ref to above pics. Next time you are out with the top down. With just using your fingers. Fill that space.

Provided you're not dressed like an eskimo, you can feel the change of air flow.

Indeed; putting your hand parallel to the door in the corner behind the mirror makes a stunningly large difference.
It is a perfect example of the disproportionately large effect of small aero changes.
