Default Cab Windstop for $250.. Good Deal?

I saw the below craigslist ad and bought the radio and amp. If the price I paid for the radio & amp is any indication, the windstop may be a good deal too.

I've never been to the 996 part of Rennlist before.... nice place.

Windscreen prices are all over the map, but usually you can get one on eBay anywhere between 200-275, so I'd say it's fair to slightly high. Sometimes eBay has 5-6, and the prices are a bit better. The retail price can be very high, however:

There is a cost difference between the C2 and C4, but I believe the only difference is the case. Also note that if you are tall, and your seats are reclined, the windscreen may not fit with your seating position. You will have to look at the imaginary line across the back where the windscreen attaches and see if your seats are blocking it.

FWIW, I would try and get it for closer to $200, just my .02

Don, thanks. I didn't know if I was passing on a good deal to someone or not; you answered that question.

I also got mine from a local CL and I paid $210 cash, I knew it was a good price since I have been checking eBay for awhile. It was pretty new since the PO did not use it much and just want to get rid of it. Lucky I did not buy the ones I saw from eBay for more $$. You just have to be patient and wait for for the right time. GL.

I just bought a new one for $400 so used for $250 assuming it's in good shape is fair.
