Default Wind deflector test

Today I the had the opportunity to make a quick 180 mile jaunt up the coast and back to test out my new adamesh wind deflector. I ordered the unit online late Saturday evening and it arrived Tuesday morning. Installation took under a minute (my boyfriend did it), and we we're impress the build quality and finish.
I have long hair and it cut the wind to almost nothing, with the top down and side windows up. I believe the adamesh unit is slightly larger than the one supplied by Jag, and fits the space perfectly.

I have the same Adamesh Deflector and it works wonder in preventing backflow of wind and buffering into the front cockpit area.

Any owner of a Jaguar XK/XKR Convertible should have this important, and efficent accessory in their car.

After the shipping foul up from Mina they gave me a deal on one that I couldn't turn down. Fits great , looks great and does what is supposed to.

I am also very happy with my Adamesh deflector. Their beige unit is an almost perfect match for the caramel interiors.

Now that I can raise my rear quarter windows, it makes the deflector's very good performance even better (shameless promotion ).

I second WhiteXKR's statement; shameless promotion or not. My wife will now go out with the top down for road trips, whereas she wouldn't before. Being able to raise and lower the rear windows independently of the top is a huge plus in putting the remote control feature for the top!!
