Just curious to know what everyone thinks of their scoops. There are still 5 waiting to be delivered. Maybe they'll be picked up this Wednesday night. Hint Hint
Anyway, the weather has been too nice to really get a feel for how effective these things are.
Today it was a bit warmer and more humid. I drove to work, top down with the A/C on and the scoop. It was actually nice and the scoop does make a difference in the hot footwells. I also ran part way without the A/C, just the blower and it was still very comfortable.
We'll see how well it does in August but right now, I like it.
Mine works great! You can feel the air being blown right at the footwells. I thought at first the air would blow at the top of the dash and then wrap down, but this design is "spot on," as the Brits would say.

I liked the Scoop when I used it. My rear window is shot on the soft top so if there is a chance of rain I use the hardtop sooo, I did not get to try the scoop out in the manor it was designed during the 90 degree wheather. I did however jam it in the driver window molding and ride home with it that way. It makes me want to try out the side vents that the company offers.

I am full of good ideas, just most people don't call it good ideas!
Mine has been sitting on the workbench in my garage for a few weeks now. It could just be a placebo effect, but it seems like my garage is at least 10 degrees cooler.
Mine was so much cooler today, I had to remove it just to keep from freezing.

The easiest way to get air to the foot well was to just remove the obnoxious cover over the fresh air vent when I put the Machismo on a diet. Had to cover it in the winter, brrrrr. Of course I have no heat / or A/C either, so needed some air movement.
I used mine on the trip to Austin.
Worked well, although it wasn't to hot.
Not noisy or intrusive.
I'm eagerly awaiting the reviews for the GTS Cupholder Deluxe Turbo...

I haven't even put mine on yet, but I swear it feels about 40 degrees cooler today...
