I agree with Jim. I have a Moss Motors "screen" style diverter on my '74 MGB
and it is really effective. I no longer need a budget for lost ball caps
blowing off my head.
But the Tiger is much less windy than my MGB, and don't feel the same need to
install a wind blocker.
FWIW,

Hi John
There are several MGBs, a TR7 and a few others in our English car club that
have installed them, most have been homemade out of plexi and brackets
fabricated. They ALL swear by them... I'm thinking of putting it on my
to-do list for next winter. I think it would be easy to fasten it to the
roll bar but all that I have seen have been installed vertical and no roll
bar on the car.

John, I saw one advertised somewhere for MG's. Maybe someone in that
group can tell how well they work and if they can be converted for use on a
Tiger. I've wondered the same thing for a few years and never acted on it.

I would like to hear from anyone that has tried installing a wind diverter
behind the seats in a Tiger to reduce the wind turbulence win the car when
the top is off. It seems to help with the smaller roadsters like the Z4,
Miata. Anyone ever tried it in a Tiger?---what were the results? Seems like
it would be pretty easy to do, putting it between the seats and the
roll-bar---but---why try to build a car with square wheels if we know they
don't work?
