Default Quick roadster question

Just picked up my 180 Nimbus/Amber TTR. I love the car but the weather sucks in the northeast. The 180 is plenty fast for me -- this is my first sports car.

Anyway I put the top down for a few minutes this morning when the thermometer cracked 50 and the sun came out. I put up the glass wind deflector -- how far up is it supposed to go? It only seems to go up about half the height of the rollbars. Is mine busted? If it went up a few more inches it seems it would be more effective.

Thanks in advance. Sorry if this is in the manual, I can't get to mine for a couple of days.

Default Wind deflector in the 225Q Roadster I saw at dealer only went up part of the way in relation to the

rollbars. You wouldn't want glass to smash in case of rollover, would ya?

That's it - just enough to keep those Nor'easters off the back of your neck.

Default Mine goes up most, but not all, of the way. The deflector looks cool but doesn't do much.
