I purchased a perspex wind blocker off the forum, and it fitted perfectly with my style bars.
However, increasing arthritis means that I no longer have the strength or dexterity to zip open or close the rear window, due to the lack of clearance between the top of them and the roof
Does anyone know if an NB wind blocker will fit if style bars are fitted?
I really miss the huge reduction in buffeting that the perspex blocker provided (I must dig it out and put it up for sale, I guess).

Re: Wind blocker in NA6 with style bars
Hi Chris
I have a NA and recently fitted a BD roll. I didn't want to do without my trusty NB windblocker so looked up a few threads about it.
Most appeared a bit complicated, but I found by turning it around, it bolted straight in!
I have recently taken it out and bent up the brackets slightly so that I could have the flip up section up without it hitting the bar.
Works great!!
Here's a couple of pics taken before I adjusted the brackets:
Hope that helps...
