RAGTOP

Anyone else got one of these on their beetle? Aftermarket/stock?
If so do you get wind and rain coming through the top when travelling at speeds >80km? I have this perspex wind deflector thing that does the job but looks tacky. Anyone know of any good places to find aftermarket wind deflectors or know any doityourself fixes to the wind leak thingy problem?

cheers

It could rain for 40 days and nights and my Goldie would never leak even if I was driving it.
I drove it to Adelaide while it Pissed down with wind and heavy rain all night and it didn't leak.
But it doesn't like it when you squirt water at it from the sides, than it will leak but not much just enough to get a wet Arse of the seat.

Mine came with that perspexs thingo and I 'd put it on ....:puke
Though I need to adjust the Cam so it shuts snug, at the moment the front lip sits up about a half an inch. I get 1 or 2 drips on me but it don't pour through.
Maybe this is a must do today sort of job:duh...has anyone adjusted the Cam on a Britax?
