This is the first use of a self-mounted, transparent and
frameless wind deflector for convertible cars that meets AS2 ANSI
and ECE
requirements. The steeply raked design minimizes air turbulence and noise when
the top is down. Replacing glass with PC lowered mass 33% and allowed a
contoured shape to be achieved that would have been difficult and costly in
glass. A laser-etched monogram under the surface is unobtrusive to vision
during driving, yet visible during inspection and meets regulatory requirements
for glass marking. A plasma coating enhances scratch, chemical, and UV
resistance for long use life.
