I've never seen that before, but it doesn't look like it fits good.

It also virtually eliminates airflow over the heater core and A/C core, since that's where they both take their air.

On the fence about it.

Does the heat work with it's main source of airflow blocked off?

The more i look at it the more unfinised it looks. Needs a beveled edge like the stock cover to flow with the other lines in that area.

it wasnt screwed down in the pic i took fits nice and it does have a nice scalloped edge just a bad pic. once it was screwed down with the wiper in place it looks cool i think. and yes the heat works i dont have ac so i would assume if the heat works then so does the ac? paid 50$ on ebay and it served its perpose of keeping the water off my floors. i know 2 other guys that have them and they like them.

Im planning on having a nice one made from sheet metal for my car and having louvers cut into it. We'll see how it turns out.
