On page 34 of latest mgcc Maggy features Scott muntons gt .he has a deflector fitted to the top of the roof .does anyone know where you can get these ?.I imagine they keep the wind noise down .thanks

I haven't bothered with wind deflector for mine. Had one on previous MGB GT and it was more bother than it was worth. I keep n/s back window open. That enables airflow and stops any buffeting. If noise is an issue close quarter lights, that is where most of wind noise is generated.

Hi,
Scott tells me it's from a Pug 308 and defo works, no buffering!

Thanks so much - certainly looks good . My sunroof has a flip up plastic blade which is pretty useless and anyway i find you get wind noise from the roof when it is shut !. Will investigate this then.

Roger, I have a blade on my Weathershield Systems (Britax, I think) sunroof, it works very well. With the blade down there is a lot of buffeting and wind noise, with the blade up is it very comfortable and quiet.

I purchased a new blade last year from Littleport Boat Haven in Ely, Cambridgeshire. http://www.littleportboathaven.co.uk/index.htm It was very good quality and the fit was far better then the previous one that had cracked. I can highly recommend a decent blade.
