Does anyone know of easy to attach and detach sun visor type wind deflectors to clip onto the top edge of the windscreen? I'm looking for some that can be removed easily when necessary to put the hood up.

I do not have them myself,checkout Holden Classics they sell tinted Perspex sun visors approx 68 UKPounds. Worth a call to them to ensure they would be suitable.

I think mine are either Simmonds or Heart of England and are tinted grey. The way I fixed the hinges mean that they stay up & over the screen top as wind deflectors and the hood fits over the top. I believe that the Holden ones are not the right width to fit the morgan screen fittings, but worth checking.

I have some that clip over the screen frame but when the hoods on they create quite a gap and the rain poors in.

Melvyn Rutter sells one for the 10 stud windscreens only. They do look very similar to the Holden ones. I have a pair from Melyvn and they're great.

Thanks I'll look into these. I'm just looking for some up and over wind deflection at higher speeds.

I have factory fitted sun visors, and, to be frank, they don't seem to have much effect on the wind at motorway speeds. Most of the air comes from behind as it sweeps over the screen and curls back in under the air flow.

Thanks good to know. Maybe I'll rig something up myself to test before spending any money.

Thanks the lot Dave. What I can't see from those pics is whether you needed to drill holes in the screen to fit?
