Solid ones redirect any slipstream straight on to the back of your head which is worse than none at all ... try to get a genuine BMW one.

Get a genuine one, worth the penny's imo. I've noticed it gets better the faster you drive, so gives you a good excuse if you're speeding :rofl:

I'm afraid I can't help with buying one but the E89 has small black mounts which seem to be attached to the silver roll hoops. The wind block itself is a little mesh foldable unit (even comes with a neat little carry bag that fits on the extended storage shelf behind the seats).

Having been in a car with an eBay perspex wind deflector.....buy OEM

If the car doesnt currently have one odds you will need new roll hoop parts also
