It's worth following Julian Edgar's advice. I think this is the best 'local' boat tail, I think it's on a different Insight now. Pic title says 'jims tail'.



Would your expected customers have a trailer light socket available? That would reduce rewiring effort.
definitely. at this stage I want to assess the benefits only. if on an Insight which is already quite good in terms of wake given existing roof slant angle, boat tail allows reducing drag by 10-20%, I imagine that on this car this would be even more !

and yes if i go for the same version than prototype, i will install the trailer light socket so the mod is "plug and play"

and I bought the book of Julian, inspiring indeed !
