Default Moonroof Or sunroof

Ok. here's a question for you. I see a lot of car with sun or moonroofs. For the life of me I can't think of the name of the the thing that goes in front on it. Wind deflecter what ever. Question is do they work or NOT ?

Thats what I thought Mike. But do they work ? I think it takes away the design and flow of the Monte's. I see a lot of them lately. And was just wondering. I don't have mine open that much. So maybe if they do work It's worth it. Thanks Mike..

Thanks Zach. I agree 100%. I think a little wind noise is better then having one of them on. Love the way the car looks without. But I had to ask. Thanks again.

My girlfriend's Impala has one built in, they are nice when they are like that.

The stick on ones don't belong.

Neither am I. Sure it's quieter. But I'd rather just turn the stereo up a little more, and look cool. I think the stick on deflectors ruin the lines of the car.

Of course if you're blasting Madonna on your stereo, you should probably just close the sunroof completely.
