what's the part number on this? american folks have nothing!
Googling will find a number of non-Ford proprietory windstops for the S550 Stang - here for example.

Some have the advantage that no mods to the car are needed to fit them, but most seem to be taller than the Ford item. I was a bit dubious about the effectiveness of the relatively shallow Ford windstop, but having fitted it I agree with others - it really makes a significant difference at any speed.

Completely agree with the last two members comments. I had a cheaper non Ford windbreak before getting the proper one after speaking to Mike R. No comparison much better despite being smaller & me being over 6feet tall. Looks better too.

I am 6'5" as well and although it does not fit perfectly with my CDC lightbar, it does the job.
With the CDC bar, it sit at a slight backward angle but does not seem to be affecting it doing what is is suppose to do.

I have not drilled the holes yet for the mounts but rather have it sit on top and just used a strap to hold it down. Still one of the things I need to finish off at some point.
