    Anyone have Pics of G23 slide in air dam?

    On a 2015 G23....Thinking about making an air dam/filler to cut down on wind. Can someone post some pics of how they look? Looks like the pads in the walkthrough area between windshield area won't allow to add tracks for it. Would like to see a stock one

    thanks,

    I don't think the channels for the wind dam cause any change in the vinyl, sorry I don't have a picture of the other side with the wind dam in place. Creating one would be easy with some U channel, some screws and a piece of plexiglass.

      Unfortunately, the vinyl panels are different with no place for the U channel for a wind dam. You can order it from Nautique, but for $1400 in parts I declined and am very interested in your solution. As a $200 option this should be standard equipment, with the pocket door as an upgrade.

      I have thought about making an upholstered dam, sized right the bow filler cushion/wind would keep it in place.

        It looks like if you don't have the arm rests, you could easily put some snaps along the fiberglass just forward of where the stock wind dam is and snap a piece of fabric in there similar to the snap on tow covers that used to be so popular.

          I like Tallredrider's idea....you could even put the snaps all the way up to the windshield and have the fabric bend at the top to meet the windshield! Wouldn't look too bad! Just be sure to get them all straight...measure twice, drill once! Plus the fabric would be easy to roll up and store anywhere!
