Posted 12 years 10 months ago #34701Here are a few tip to cut down on wind noise.........
1 Drive slower
2 Eat less Brussel Sprouts with your Christmas dinner
3 Super glue the front part of the soft top to the wind screen surround thus rendering it un removable.
Early in the production of the F some independent company's came up with a few very clever accessory's to help with the problem............
These can help but they do tend to get stuck in your ear if you push them in to far
Surgical ear enlargement to allow you to still hear what your passenger is saying was of limited success..........
This is a good option but only if you have 4 arms due to it be difficult to keep the car in a straight line using only your knees to steer
Ear wrapping can help but you will look stupid
Another good idea but a very uncool look
Setting one of these off in your wardrobe while you are sitting in it can muffle the wind noise for up to 100 miles
