Eddysposts is the best! I asked a ton of question trying to figure out which hardware to use. Ed answered all my question and Fast is an understatement.

I buy Everything from Fast Eddy !!!! Superior Service, great customer support. He has more than once pointed out things that wouldn't have even thought of before spending money on something that really wouldn't have worked.

His prices are GREAT !!

TTFN,

You can just get the hardware, and make your own. The first is a picture from Larry Disney's gallery, and the second is one that I did. If you decide to go this route it's quite effective.

Frank, I bought the regular sized lowers, and tried them at all sorts of angles and tilt. They seemed to cut the tank air buffeting by about 70% - that's with a light bar and a medium Clearview screen. The tank air buffeting still coming through was tough to deal with after a few hours. Extending the lowers closed off the space behind the light bar, and the tank air was gone.

You're right though, depending on screen setup and body size, the regular ones probably work for most.
