Just yell "CARNIVAL" out of the window and honk your horn!

I tested mine the other day and got the same result. A little less tuft flutter on the delete side. It's a rain deflector like aerohead and BB say. I noticed a lower wind noise on the highway on the side I deleted mine from. Have yet to see how they change the rain pattern.

I also removed those tinted "rain deflectors" (spelled p a r a c h u t e s) that the previous owners installed. I always hated them. Now I can crack the windows on the highway and not be deafened by the turbulence. I can live with a few rain drops.
