    Got you covered (maybe). Would these suffice?

    Seemed like a very nice feature to not have to go digging for the wind dam buried under a seat that inevitably someone is sitting on. There is a decent sized gap between the top of the door and the bottom of the windshield (they don't match up very tightly), but still a pretty cool feature. Unfortunately I don't have a shot of the undeployed state on the starboard side but can describe it in detail if you'd like.

      Thanks, it looks like one door? Is it hidden under the driver's side dash area? I smell a project coming on! :-)

        It slides from the drivers side into a small opening on the passengers side. I have it on my G23 and find it very useful, however, it does rattle with the bass of some songs as the sub woofer is close beside it. I think it is a good option as trying to find the slide in can be a pain. It does not make contact the the window, so there is a small gap but it cuts the wind flow just as you would expect it to.

          have to agree great option, much better than the 230, which when open it laid against the trashcan so you had to open to put trash in ,the slide works great ,out of the way until you need it, also if the walk though glass is closed you can still close the wind dam. you had to open the glass on the 230 , which was always a challenge if under way because of the wind.

            Mini hijack on

            Thanks for mentioning that it rattles with the bass. This is something I didn't realize could happen but makes total sense. Does the slide in wind dam have a more positive contact (in malibu's its just a little rail with felt-like material around it so that it pinches nice and tight and doesn't rattle). Is that what the normal wind dam is like?

                Going to order the pocket door on my G. Really surprised that #1 its a $1,143 option...WTF ; #2 that it still doesn't seal all the air from the front ; #3 bass makes it rattle noticeably. Almost as poor a design as the bungee cords that will be holding my wakeboards.

                Hoping these will be my only 2 complaints.

                  have never notice mine rattling from the bass,but could see that it would be possible but probably easy fix, I thought the same thing about price, but once used and how well it is constructed was glad I got it over the slide option. there is a gap, but never notice unwanted air even at 40 degrees
